The metal L-edge (2p → 3d) X-ray absorption spectra are affected by a number of different interactions: electron-electron repulsion, spin-orbit coupling, and charge transfer between ligands, which makes the simulation challenging. core restricted active space (RAS) method is an accurate flexible approach that can be used to calculate wide range medium-sized systems without any symmetry constraints. Here, applicability tested in detail simulating three ferric (3d(5)) model with well-known...
