    Multiplicity of the system.

  • default_inputs (list[str] | None, default: None ) –

    Default input parameters.

  • default_blocks (list[str] | None, default: None ) –

    Default block input parameters.

  • input_swaps (list[str] | None, default: None ) –

    List of orcasimpleinput swaps for the calculator. To remove entries from the defaults, put a # in front of the name.

  • block_swaps (list[str] | None, default: None ) –

    List of orcablock swaps for the calculator. To remove entries from the defaults, put a # in front of the name.

  • **calc_kwargs –

    Any other keyword arguments to pass to the ORCA calculator.

Returns:

  • ORCA –
