25. The main effect of relativistic valence contraction is probably not due to orthogonality constraints to the inner orbitals as often explained (ref 23 and 24); e.g., see: Rose, S. J.; Grant, I. P.; Pyper, N. C. J. Phys. B 1978, 11, 1171.

27. The relationship between orbital and bond contractions has been much discussed in the past; e.g., see: Snijders, J. G.; Pyykkö, P. Chem. Phys. Lett. 1980, 75, 5. A proper interpretation was given recently by: Schwarz, W. H. E. Phys. Scr. 1987, 36, 403.

43. The 5d/6s separation can be expressed as the difference of the (j-averaged) 5d/6s orbital energies for the neutral atoms Au, Hg, and Tl, calculated with the programs MCHF and MCDF (in au relativistic values in parentheses): Au, 0.3303 (0.1630); Hg, 0.4532 (0.2768); Tl, 0.6072 (0.3904). The relativistic values are smaller because of the relativistic 6s contraction and 5d expansion. Program MCHF: Froese-Fischer, C. Comput. Phys. Commun. 1978, 14, 145. Program MCDF: Reference 47.
