  \brief class for regularizing singular potentials in the molecular
  Hamilton operator
 
  \par Introduction
 
  The correlation factors are intended to represent the cusps (nuclear or
  electronic) in the molecular wave function. Their commutator over the
  kinetic energy operator give a potential operator that cancels the
  singular potential
 
  [T, f12]      = U + 1/r12
  R^-1[T, R]    = U_nuc - sum_A Z_A/r1A
 
  The regularized potentials U and U_nuc contain two terms each, a local
  potential, (denoted U2), and a potential that is multiplied with the
  derivative operator \nabla (denoted U1)
 
  U             = U1 . (\nabla_1 - \nabla_2) + U2
  U_nuc         = U1 . \nabla + U2
 
  with
 
  U2            = (\nabla^2 f12)
  U2            = R^{-1}(\nabla^2 R)
 
  \vec U1       = (\vec \nabla f12)
  \vec U1       = R^{-1}(\vec \nabla R)
 
  To construct a nuclear correlation factor write:
 
  std::shared_ptr<NuclearCorrelationFactor> nuclear_correlation
   = create_nuclear_correlation_factor(world,*calc);
 
  where calc is an SCF calculation which holds the molecule and the
  nuclear_corrfac parameter name.
