This was a real breakthrough.

In particular, NEVPT2 is known to be intruder state free. The limited applicability of these so-called multiconfigurational methods is mainly due to the necessity of defining an active space, as well as their factorial computational growth with the number of active electrons and orbitals. @@ -177,27 +177,28 @@ The advent of time-dependent density-functional theory (TD-DFT) \cite{Run84,Dre0 However, a large number of shortcomings were quickly discovered. \cite{Dre05} One of the most annoying feature of TD-DFT in the present context is its inability to describe, even qualitatively, charge-transfer states, \cite{Toz99} Rydberg states, \cite{Toz98} and double excitations. \cite{Lev06} Moreover, the difficulty of making TD-DFT systematically improvable obviously hampers its applicability. -One of the main problem is the selection of the exchange-correlation functional and the variation of the results one can obtain with different choices. +One of the main issue is the selection of the exchange-correlation functional from an ever growing zoo of functionals and the variation of the excitation energies one can obtain with different choices. \cite{Sue19} Despite all of this, TD-DFT is still nowadays the most employed excited-state method in the electronic structure community. %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% %%% CC METHODS %%% %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% -Thanks to the development of coupled cluster (CC) response theory, \cite{Koc90} and the huge growth of computer power, EOM-CCSD \cite{Sta93} became mainstream in the 2000's. +Thanks to the development of coupled cluster (CC) response theory, \cite{Koc90} and the huge growth of computer power, equation-of-motion coupled cluster with singles and doubles (EOM-CCSD) \cite{Sta93} became mainstream in the 2000's.
