Although for ground-state properties angular incompleteness is by far the main source of error, it is definitely not unusual to have a significant radial incompleteness in the case of excited states (especially for Rydberg states), which can be alleviated by using additional sets of diffuse basis functions (i.e.~augmented basis sets). Explicitly-correlated F12 methods \cite{Kut-TCA-85, Kut-TCA-85, KutKlo-JCP-91, NogKut-JCP-94} have been specifically designed to efficiently catch angular incompleteness. \cite{Ten-TCA-12, TenNog-WIREs-12, HatKloKohTew-CR-12, KonBisVal-CR-12, GruHirOhnTen-JCP-17, MaWer-WIREs-18} Although they have been extremely successful to speed up convergence of ground-state energies and properties, such as correlation and atomization energies, \cite{TewKloNeiHat-PCCP-07} their performances for excited states \cite{FliHatKlo-JCP-06, NeiHatKlo-JCP-06, HanKoh-JCP-09, Koh-JCP-09, ShiWer-JCP-10, ShiKniWer-JCP-11, ShiWer-JCP-11, ShiWer-MP-13} have been much more conflicting. \cite{FliHatKlo-JCP-06, NeiHatKlo-JCP-06} -Instead of F12 methods, here we propose to follow a different route and investigate the performance of the recently proposed universal density-based basis set +Instead of F12 methods, here we propose to follow a different route and investigate the performance of the recently proposed density-based basis set incompleteness correction. \cite{GinPraFerAssSavTou-JCP-18} Contrary to our recent study on atomization and correlation energies, \cite{LooPraSceTouGin-JPCL-19} the present contribution focuses on vertical and adiabatic excitation energies in molecular systems which is a much tougher test for the reasons mentioned above. -This density-based correction relies on short-range correlation density functionals (with multideterminant reference) from range-separated density-functional theory \cite{TouColSav-PRA-04, AngGerSavTou-PRA-05, GolWerSto-PCCP-05, TouGerJanSavAng-PRL-09,JanHenScu-JCP-09, TouZhuSavJanAng-JCP-11, MusReiAngTou-JCP-15, LeiStoWerSav-CPL-97, FroTouJen-JCP-07, FroCimJen-PRA-10, HedKneKieJenRei-JCP-15, HedTouJen-JCP-18, FerGinTou-JCP-18} (RS-DFT) to capture the missing part of the short-range correlation effects, a consequence of the incompleteness of the one-electron basis set. -Because RS-DFT combines rigorously density-functional theory (DFT) \cite{ParYan-BOOK-89} and wave function theory (WFT) \cite{SzaOst-BOOK-96} via a decomposition of the electron-electron interaction into a non-divergent long-range part and a (complementary) short-range part (treated with WFT and DFT, respectively), the WFT method is relieved from describing the short-range part of the correlation hole around the electron-electron coalescence points. +This density-based correction relies on short-range correlation density functionals (with multideterminant reference) from range-separated density-functional theory \cite{Sav-INC-96, LeiStoWerSav-CPL-97, TouColSav-PRA-04, TouSavFla-IJQC-04, AngGerSavTou-PRA-05, GolWerSto-PCCP-05, PazMorGorBac-PRB-06, FroTouJen-JCP-07, TouGerJanSavAng-PRL-09, JanHenScu-JCP-09, FroCimJen-PRA-10, TouZhuSavJanAng-JCP-11, MusReiAngTou-JCP-15, HedKneKieJenRei-JCP-15, HedTouJen-JCP-18, FerGinTou-JCP-18} (RS-DFT) to capture the missing part of the short-range correlation effects, a consequence of the incompleteness of the one-electron basis set. +Because RS-DFT combines rigorously density-functional theory (DFT) \cite{ParYan-BOOK-89} and wave function theory (WFT) \cite{SzaOst-BOOK-96} via a decomposition of the electron-electron interaction into a non-divergent long-range part and a (complementary) short-range part (treated with WFT and DFT, respectively), the WFT method is relieved from describing the short-range part of the correlation hole around the electron-electron coalescence points (cusp). Consequently, the energy convergence with respect to the size of the basis set is significantly improved, \cite{FraMusLupTou-JCP-15} and chemical accuracy can be obtained even with small basis sets. For example, in Ref.~\onlinecite{LooPraSceTouGin-JPCL-19}, we have shown that one can recover quintuple-$\zeta$ quality atomization and correlation energies with triple-$\zeta$ basis sets for a much lower computational cost than F12 methods.
