Dear Oleksandr, Adam, Lucas, Thank you very much for your input. I knew the things I needed to look into were simple. It turn out the problem had to do with my slighlty-off definition of the W point. Thank you Lucas for the fdf file. I have to say the distribution function proposed makes calculations really fast for metals. I'll keep using it from now on. I did not find big changes with the fineness of the mesh nor the number of k-points although I was more concerned at the moment with qualitative agreement and now I'll look more carefully into convergence studies.
Thank you for your help, Salva. ************************* Salvador Barraza-Lopez 3223 BI University of Illinois +1(217) 244 1964 (Office) https://netfiles.uiuc.edu/barrazal/www/ *************************
