26. The value of C 0.0089 was obtained in Ref. by fitting to a C 6 test set using electron densities produced by the long-range corrected (LC) hybrid functional LC-PBE. As compared to LC hybrids, the description of density tails by semilocal XC functionals is systematically less accurate, which is reflected in g. The readjusted value of C 0.0093 is tailored for use with semilocal XC functionals, such as rPW86-PBE.
