unexpected reference energy in MRCI

[Irikura, Karl K. Dr. (Fed)]

Dear Molpro experts,

 

In the new version 2021.2, the reference energy listed in the MRCI root information is not the value that I expected from the preceding CASSCF.  Does it represented a rotated reference energy?  It is not necessarily a problem, but did break my parser program.  

 

State     Reference Energy

     1      -119.07826628

     2      -119.05998322

     3      -119.00114414

     4      -118.99548923

     5      -118.94377385

     6      -118.92126020

     7      -118.92065580

     8      -118.91742505

     9      -118.85867504

    10      -118.83032602

    11      -118.82414916

…

RESULTS FOR STATE 1.1

=====================

…

Reference energy                    -119.07784803

 

The expected value of reference energy is stored in the variable ENERGR. 

 

Thanks for any explanation!

Karl
