    Abstract

    We show that the long-range Ewald operator can be resolved as erf(ωr12)/r12 = ∑kφ k*(r1k(r2), where φk is proportional to the product of a spherical Bessel function and a spherical harmonic. We demonstrate the use of this new resolution by calculating the long-range Coulomb energy of the nanodiamond crystallite C 84H64 and the long-range exchange energy of the graphene C96 24. The resolution appears particularly effective for long-range exchange calculations.
