AbstractAn implementation of a two-component all-electron (jj / ømegaømega) treatment of both scalar and spin-orbit relativistic effects in the MOLFDIR program suite is presented. Relativity is accounted for by Douglas-Kroll transformed one-electron operators: scalar (spin-free) and so called mean-field spin-orbit terms. The interelectronic interaction is represented by the non-relativistic Coulomb operator, neglecting scalar and non-mean field spin-orbit relativistic contributions. High-level correlated calculations of properties of several systems (FO, ClO, Cl, O2+, Tl, and TlH) where spin-orbit effects play a dominant role are presented and compared with other data. Agreement with Dirac-Coulomb(-Gaunt) reference values is in general very good.
