Phys. 1996, 105, 213-226 As Jastrow correlation factor, we use the exponential of the sum of three fifth-order polynomials of the electron-nuclear (e-n), the electron-electron (e-e), and of pure 3-body mixed e-e and e-n distances (e-e-n), respectively. A 2-body Jastrow factor only includes e-n and e-n terms. The Jastrow factor is adapted to deal with pseudo-atoms, and the scaling factor is set to 0.6 au
