Abstract

Spin densities at carbon and hydrogen are calculated at several out of plane angles of the methyl radical. Comparison with temperature dependent ESR studies indicate that the GF method describes the variation adequately while Hartree-Fock, Unrestricted Hartree-Fock, and Valence-Bond treatments do not.
