520 3 |a An expression for the square of the spin operator expectation value, $$\langle S^2 \rangle$$ ⟨ S 2 ⟩ , is obtained for a general complex Hartree-Fock wave function and decomposed into four contributions: the main one whose expression is formally identical to the restricted (open-shell) Hartree-Fock expression. A spin contamination one formally analogous to that found for spin unrestricted Hartree-Fock wave functions. A noncollinearity contribution related to the fact that the wave function is not an eigenfunction of the spin-S z operator. A perpendicularity contribution related to the fact that the spin density is not constrained to be zero in the xy-plane. All these contributions are evaluated and compared for the H2O+ system. The optimization of the collinearity axis is also considered.
