qubithubheh-plus-ground-state

Finds the ground state energy of helium hydride cation (HeH+) using VQE with a UCCSD-inspired 3-parameter ansatz. HeH+ is a 2-electron heteronuclear system with asymmetric nuclear charges, and was the first molecule to form in the universe. Exact ground state: -2.8620 Hartree (FCI/STO-3G).
