[Wien] Intel Composer xe sp1.8.273
Hi Marcin, I tried l_fcompxe_2011.8.273.tgz on my Open SUSE 12.1 (Intel Core 2 Duo processor) with WIEN2k 11.1, it compiles and works fine without any problems. Update 6 on this system produced crashes on the same calculation.

[Wien] Intel Composer xe sp1.8.273
Dear Wien2k users, Could You tell if is the Intel Composer 2011 XE sp1.8.273 defective like version 1.6 (update 6)? I have a problem with lapw1 crash in very first second of calculations with message: ?error: command .../wien2k/lapw1 lapw1.def failed?. I have tried several different settings of compiler options, but with no success. The search engine for this group is not very effective and I have not been able to find answer to my question. -- Marcin Kowalik
[Wien] Sum of Eigenvalues
It should represent an integral over the BZ (of course represented as finite sum on a grid of k-points as specified in case.klist) of the occupied band states (up to EF), i.e. without core (but including "semicore"). Therefore it also may depend not only on the k-mesh, but also on the "Fermi"-method. It is in Ry and with respect to the "average coulomb potential in the interstitial", which defines our energy-zero, but which otherwise does NOT have any physical meaning. Thus this quantity is usually of no particular interest (other than being part of E-tot), but may be used eg. when using the "force-theorem" in non-scf SO calculations using different magnetization directions. Maybe you can also get some meaningfull comparison of these "band-energies", when you can bring them to some common E-zero in two calculations, e.g. referring to some common core-energy, Am 25.01.2012 11:16, schrieb Jyoti: > Dear Prof. Blaha and dear WIEN users, > > I have a few questions regarding the ?Sum of Eigenvalues? parameter given the > scf output of the WIEN2K program.

[Wien] Magnetic moment for AFM configuration
I never tried to calculate something like this but my first guess of what goes wrong would be along the lines of Laurence Marks ideas. Are you sure that the symmetry of your supercell is compatible with an overall AF solution? For example something like ++ -- ++ -- vacuum spacer chmiesorption layer ++ -- ++ -- . . . could easily be the result of a supercell construction - and it would NOT be compatible with an overall AFM solution.

[Wien] Sum of Eigenvalues
Dear Prof. Blaha and dear WIEN users, I have a few questions regarding the ?Sum of Eigenvalues? parameter given the scf output of the WIEN2K program. I will be highly obliged to get the reply to these questions. 1. This ?sum of eigenvalues? implies sum over what part of bandstructure; the one given in klist or over some other part of bandstructure also or over the entire bandstructure (and if so which is that?). 2. What is the zero point with respect to which this sum is defined? 3. Presumably it also is in Rydbergs. I thank you a lot for your attention and time to go through this mail and for kindly providing me the reply. Thanking You, Yours Sincerely, Jyoti -- next part -- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

[Wien] mpich2
Dear All, Using WIen2k with mpich (or mvapich/openmpi) is not hard once one has fought through Intel's compilation options. I am wondering if anyone has any experience with mpich2 -- the daemon version. It would be useful to share this. Some specific questions: a) Is it best to start the daemons as root and leave them sitting, or on a user basis? b) Are they started by a pbs job, by a user script or what? Which is better? c) Has anyone benchmarked mpich2 versus mpich (or other variants)? -- Professor Laurence Marks Department of Materials Science and Engineering Northwestern University www.numis.northwestern.edu 1-847-491-3996 "Research is to see what everybody else has seen, and to think what nobody else has thought" Albert Szent-Gyorgi
[Wien] Curie temperature
Dear Wien2k users, Can we calculate the Curie temperature using Wien2k? If so how? Please this may be explained. For Cr, I can not find case.inst in the wien2k manual and I request that this may be sent so that I can compare with the one I got.Few more examples may also kindly be sent. Thank you.

[Wien] Curie temperature
To my knowledge the evaluation of the Curie temperature could not be a direct output of a DFT calculation. In literature, you could find equation allowing to estimate Tc based on a preliminary estimation of the exchange parameters J(ij). These exchange parameters must be calculated based on a mapping analysis, which consists to consider different magnetic orderings (ground state and excited magnetic states). In conclusion to estimate Tc you need to do more than one calculation and you have to define your own strategy to estimate the J parameters. Thus it appears critical to have an output in a DFT code providing Tc, to my point of view.
