Thank you for your care.
I shall remain waiting the corrections. Another query: I saw some posts in which colleagues say they could do mBJ+soc calculations e.g. http://www.mail-archive.com/wien@zeus.theochem.tuwien.ac.at/msg12500.html When I tried mBJ+soc Lapw0/lapw1 crash on the 2nd iteration in ver 16.1 but continue on ver 14.2. Can you check this different behavoiur between ver 14.2 and ver 16.1. I know mBJ is meant for correcting the band gap of semiconductors (it is a potential and not an exchange functional) , but I was eager to test mBJ+soc. May you please have a look on this issue too.

It comes from our change of the weight files and there is a factor of two missing in joint, as joint "does not know" that it comes from a SO calculation. We will fix this and I let you know when it is ready. On 05/04/2017 08:14 AM, Osama Yassin wrote: > Dear Prof Blaha > > Guten Morgen > > > Thank you for your reply.
