Re: [Wien] fixed spin moment calculation in MSRa1 mode

2022-09-10 Thread Laurence Marks
MSR1a will probably not give sensible results in fsm mode. At the moment
you will have to change TOT to FOR in all the case.in2* files beyond just
case.inm. It still might not work.

At best it might bring you close, then you would switch to runsp. I suggest
just using runfsm to get close in MSR1a, or after a nor.al run

In principle you can run it, but I have never tried. I will test, probably
next week. No promises.

I was working to help a student. I assumed that She has optimized the
structure well.
I just finished a case starting from optimization. With a finer k-mesh
(25x25x25), band gap in case.scf and case.bands.agr are same.
Thanks for your detailed response.

Re: [Wien] IRelast error in C_ana_elast_lapw

2022-09-10 Thread Laurence Marks
My guess. Neither a "reverse parabola", which has a maximum, not "linear",
which has none are physically reasonable right. Either you are far from the
minimum energy, your structure is unstable or something else is wrong.
Ensure that you are at a stable minimum before trying to do the elastic
constants.

Just my guess based upon what you said in your email. Did you mean
"reverse"?

1. You forgot to include -orb when you did the bands.
2. You had too small a k-mesh for the scf, the fine one for the bands shows
a metal.
3. Your grep showed just the "up" spin, not both.
