Hello,
I did the calculation at B3LYP/def2-TZVP level for MgH2 using Multiwfn, the data of the (3,-1) critical point between H and Mg is shown below; as you can see, electron density, Laplacian of electron density as well as ELF, are close to the corresponding data in your screenshot.

Dear Sir
I have a question regarding the data presented in the attached image table below for MgH2. I tried to obtain the precise values for the first three entries in the attached image table (Columns 3-5) as indicated in the accompanying information. Unfortunately, my attempts were unsuccessful, and I am unsure of the source of the issue, despite using the same optimized geometry for this compound as detailed in the referenced paper. Could you please provide guidance on how to accurately acquire these values? Can you also clarify the method for obtaining these values?
