(supposing intermediate normalization). Moreover, there are no contributions involving E

k c l | 0 = 0.
In evaluating (C2) and (C3), it is advantageous to treat the cases k = l and k = l
separately. Supposing k < l, one obtains the following expressions
(C2) = −
a v abk j v
∗
abl j ( a + b − j − k − l )
(C3) = +
a V ab[k j] v

abl j +
a V
∗
ab[l j] v abk j
Now, the three non-vanishing second-order contributions have to be combined. Since
(C1), (C2), and (C3) differ only in orbital energy factors, they can easily be added
to give

As can readily be established, this expression is no longer restricted to k < l and
comprises, in particular, the diagonal matrix elements, k = l, incorporating here also
the (C4) contribution. Thus, the final result for the ISR(2) secular matrix elements
reads
M kl = − k δ kl + M

kl given by Eq. (11.47). Together with Eqs. (11.37) and (11.30), this constitutes the ISR(2) secular matrix at the second-order level.
The comparison with the ADC equations (10.33) shows that indeed the identity (11.26) between the ISR and the (negative) ADC secular matrices is valid through
the second-order level.
