[QE-users] Constrained magnetism calculations question

2020-05-28 Thread Felix Frontini
Hi All, I am working on a system where I want to implement constrained magnetism and I don't understand what the relation between the starting_magnetization(i) value and actual magnetic moment on site i is. I read here https://lists.quantum-espresso.org/pipermail/users/2011-March/019612.html th

Hi Paolo, Thanks, I checked again and my basis set cutoff was too low and now the two agree. Best, Felix Frontini From: users on behalf of Paolo Giannozzi Sent: May 26, 2020 12:09 PM To: Quantum ESPRESSO users Forum Subject: Re: [QE-users] Non-collinear magne

[QE-users] Question about vdW - BEEF function

2020-05-28 Thread Malathe Khalil
Dear All, Can someone please explain to me why it is not possible to use vdW-BEEF function with nspin=2 ? it works only with nspin=1 taking into consideration that my system (CoP) is paramagnetic so putting nspin=1 is not correct. Thanks Malathe ___ Quan

+ ferrariruffino.fz@ Fabrizio, It seems I made a mistake but cannot figure out where. Because I cannot reproduce it. Anyway, you are correct - both 'input_dft = "scan"' and 'input_dft = "MGGA_X_SCAN + MGGA_C_SCAN" result in the same indexes:from PW output:   Exchange-correlation= MGGA_X_SCAN + MGGA

[QE-users] HSE band structures

2020-05-28 Thread Shivesh Sivakumar
Dear users, As I gather that hybrid functional bandstructures (like that of HSE06) cannot be plotted in the traditional way in QE, I'm looking at other options. I was wondering if the 'fake scf' procedure (similar to the one in VASP) works in QE? Where we manually add the k-points grid to the end
