CASPT2 iterations

Hello,

I was doing CASPT2 calculations and I saw that an iterative procedure is needed, but I don't understand why. CASPT2 method does not need iterations.

I have read in the manual (section 10.5 Excited states/CASPT2): "Of course, the complete Hˆ0 is used to solve the CASPT2 equations, which is why an iterative procedure is needed."

I had previously problems on the convergence and I would like to understand these iterations.

Thank you!

Roser
