They are defined by the integer values of the keywords '''heff''' (for scalar part) and '''hsoc''' (for SOC part). In the input one could use them in the xuanyuan section for integrals, e.g., {{{ $XUANYUAN scalar heff 3 soint hsoc 2 $END }}} The followings are some useful options for '''heff''': 1. heff=0: NR 2. heff=3: sf-X2C ('''recommended''') 3. heff=5 or 6: sf-X2C + (some spin-free parts originated from high-order SOC: 5 for Wso*Wso like terms, 6 for third order). For the keyword '''hsoc''', there are: 1. hsoc=0: SO1e (only 1e part) 2. hsoc=1: SOMF (mean-field) 3. hsoc=2: SOMF-1c (one center approximation, '''recommended''') The most practical one is heff=3, hsoc=2, which is used in computing the fine-structure splittings in the paper. One might want to try the 1e-part and SOMF (hsoc=0,1) with heff=0, which gives Breit-Pauli form of SOC, to see whether the similar results can be obtained in other program.
