Abstract (Description of Research)

This poster presents a Restricted Hartree-Fock (RHF) program that solves the Roothaan-Hall equations within a finite basis set. Starting from an initial guess density, the Fock matrix is constructed via Coulomb and Exchange contributions. The resulting pseudo-eigenvalue problem is solved iteratively until self consistency. The electronic energy of water was calculated using the STO-3G basis set and validated against PySCF as a reference.
