Dear Lorenzo,
Yes. Setting a starting_magnetization and the pw.x code will give me the
polarization.
==============================================================================
atom number 1 relative position : 0.0000 0.0000 0.4277
charge : 12.446079
magnetization : 0.000000 0.000000 2.946589
magnetization/charge: 0.000000 0.000000 0.236748
polar coord.: r, theta, phi [deg] : 2.946589 0.000000
360.000000
==============================================================================
Before I thought this information was not precise enough, so I want to run
projwfc.
Thank you again for your help.
