I'm not sure, actually the time conversion I gave you is for pw.x, as cp.x use Hartree units instead of Rydberg for the energy there is a possible factor 2 difference (the base to find out this conversion is keep in mind that [ħ]=J·s=1 in atomic units.
The input manual says that pw.x velocities are just "atomic units", no conversion is done in the code as far as I could see. Also keep in mind that ATOMIC_VELOCITIES is a seldom used feature, and may have bugs (i.e. I recently found out that it does not work with svr thermostat because of a little bug) hth -- Lorenzo Paulatto - Paris On Jul 29 2021, at 8:17 pm, valeria arteaga muñiz <valitze...@hotmail.com> wrote: > > Hello Lorenzo, > > Thanks for your reply.
