We compute the spectral correlation function (SCF) of CO J=1-0 maps of moleculary cloud complexes. The SCF is a power law over approximately an order of magnitude in spatial separation in every map. The power law slope of the SCF, its normalization, and the spectral line width averaged over the whole map, are computed for all the observational maps.

Here, we present a novel quantum-classical algorithm called LAS-QKSD for multireference systems, by combining a classical localized active space (LAS) fragment-based multireference algorithm with the quantum Krylov subspace diagonalization (QKSD) method for quantum computers. The algorithm uses wave function information from a LAS self-consistent field (LASSCF) calculation to prepare an initial state with better overlap with the target ground state than the Hartree-Fock state. This is coupled with the use of QKSD to ultimately converge to the exact energy, providing faster convergence than starting from the Hartree-Fock state. Fragmentation has the two-fold benefit of fewer configurations on the classical side of the algorithm as well as fewer state preparation gates on the quantum side. First, we compare the LAS-QKSD method to the classical LASSCF method and to QKSD with a Hartree-Fock initial state. We then examine ways to load the LASSCF wave function using direct initialization and a QKSD-motivated spectral filtering approach. Finally, using a bimetallic complex, we show that the LAS-QKSD method is an efficient alternative to highly expensive complete active space SCF (CASSCF) calculations on strongly correlated systems.
