We report a universal density-based basis set incompleteness correction that can be applied to any wave function method. We report a universal density-based basis set incompleteness correction that can be applied to any wave function method.
The present correction, which appropriately vanishes in the complete-basis-set (CBS) limit, relies on short-range correlation density functionals (with multi-determinant reference) from range-separated density-functional theory (RS-DFT) to estimate the basis set incompleteness error.

As illustrative examples, we show how this density-based correction allows us to obtain CCSD(T) atomization and correlation energies near the CBS limit for the G2 set of molecules with compact Gaussian basis sets.
