% SLOW UMP CONVERGENCE AND SPIN CONTAMINATION
The divergence of RMP expansions for stretched bonds can be easily understood from two perspectives.\cite{Gill_1988a}
Firstly, the exact wave function becomes increasingly multi-configurational as the bond is stretched, and the
\titou{R}HF wave function no longer provides a qualitatively correct reference for the perturbation expansion.

In contrast, the origin of slow UMP convergence is less obvious as the reference UHF energy remains
qualitatively correct at large bond lengths and the orbital degeneracy is avoided.
Furthermore, this slow convergence can also be observed in molecules with a UHF ground state at the equilibrium

This erroneous description of the double excitation amplitude has the same origin as the spin-contamination in the reference
UHF wave function, creating the first direct link between spin-contamination and slow UMP convergence.\cite{Gill_1988}
