[Pw_forum] question about spinors

2012-08-24 Thread Alexey Akimov
Dear Gabriele, Thank you for your great comments! So as i understand the key for orbital overlap is additional summation over spin components. This makes a lot sense to what i see - the odd-even alteration of 1 or 0 overlaps. In other words Psi_1 = psi_1,1 , Psi_2 = psi_1,2, ... Psi_2n+1 =

2012-08-24 Thread Alexey Akimov
i would also suggest not to forget about spin-polarization, that is if you simulated neutral system with nspin = 1 (no spin-polarization), in the case of +1 or -1 charge you will have one electron less or more so now should not forget to turn on the spin polarization nspin=2,
