Abstract

The results of calculations of rotational energies contain unphysical contributions from the rotation of the center-of-mass part of the wave function. A simple method is presented to remove those unphysical contributions in the case of projected Hartree-Fock calculations. Corrections to several existing Hartree-Fock calculations are computed.
