Dear all,

As you know, there is a pseudopotential file database in this website.
Are pseudopotential files in the database reasonable?
As I tested a simple h2o calculation to compare H and O pseudopotential
files in siesta with H and O pseudopotential files in the database, the
Energy value is a quite different. As I checked those output files, the
cutoff raidus is different from each other.

I put those Energy values from two output files.
Plases let me know your opnions.
Thank you.



1) h2o calculation with pseudopotential file from database

siesta: Program's energy decomposition (eV):
siesta: Eions   =       674.103101
siesta: Ena     =        85.208373
siesta: Ekin    =       340.284488

siesta:         Total =    -465.032213
