# Calculation of the 1s Cl core excitation energies of TiCl4. Both X-Ray
# Emission (XES keyword) and X-Ray absorption (XAS keyword in EXCITATION key)
# are calculated. The individual (zeroth and higher order) oscillator strength
# components to the total oscillator strengths will be printed
# (ALLXESQUADRUPOLE, ALLXASQUADRUPOLE).

# In order to calculate a 1s-orbital that is localized on one of the Cl atoms, a
# frozen core approach is used on the other Cl atoms, such that there is only
# one Cl 1s-orbital, which will remain localized in the molecule.

# In order to get information of the population analysis on all core orbitals, a
# large negative value was included as argument for the orbpoper subkey of the
# block key EPRINT. This orbital analysis shows that the 2 A1 orbital is indeed
# the 1s Cl orbital, see subkey corehole of block key XES, and subkey
# useoccupied of block key MODIFYEXCITATION.
