All other SOC-PT-based results reported in the article were obtained as described therein with the full SOMF operator.

ur work reported in Table 2 lifetimes for the lowest excited triplet states of XH with X = F, Cl, and Br calculated at the CC2 level using the perturbative SOC-PT and the exact two-component (X2C) approach. We have realized that for the calculation of SOC-PT-based lifetimes in columns 4 and 7 the SOMF operator accidentally lacked all Coulomb (or direct) two-electron contributions. The SOC-PT CC2/aug-ccpVTZ lifetimes based on the full SOMF operator from eq 51 are provided in Table 1 of the present erratum. In the original

τP,f were calculated with the RI-CC2/aug-cc-pVTZ method by using either the exact two-component (X2C) Hamiltonian or spin−orbit coupling perturbation theory (SOC-PT) with (SR) or without (NR) scalar-relativistic effects from the spin-free X2C Hamiltonian.

article we have shown that without the Coulomb contribution SOC-PT lifetimes of XH were always shorter than with X2C. With the complete SOMF operatorsone-electron and mean field Coulomb and exchange partwe observe for SOC-PT a longer T1 → S0 lifetime for FH, roughly the same lifetime for ClH, and a shorter lifetime for BrH compared to X2C. The increase of the SOC-PT lifetimes is caused by a reduction of the induced spin−orbit coupling and can be attributed to a more effective screening of nuclear charges due to the mean field Coulomb term. We expect that for molecules with only light elements (such as FH and ClH) the mean field-based SOC-PT lifetimes are more accurate than our current X2C lifetimes, which do not include any picture-change effects from the two-electron integrals. © 2016 American Chemical Society
