  1. DFT, density functional theory; MRCI, multi-reference configuration interaction; VEE, vertical excitation energy.
  2. VEEs and dominant configurations of the first two excited states of the pyrrole dimer calculated at the CASSCF(8,8), CASPT2(8,8), EOM-CCSD and DFT/MRCI levels using the aug-cc-pVDZ basis. VEEs are given in units of eV.
