12. In a real calculation one has to use a finite basis set, which makes the solution approximate. However, the error introduced by the finite basis can be estimated by checking the basis set convergence.

31. Since we use a truncated CI expansion for (formula presented) the obtained correlation energy will be somewhat smaller than the FCI value. For the (formula presented) case, the SDTQ truncation introduces an 0.6-meV reduction in (formula presented) as compared to the FCI result.
