Dear all,
This post concerns the "d3q" and "thermal2" codes:
I am trying to test the d3q code by reproducing the results for Silicon.
Everything went fine except when I execute the d3_q2r.x flag which applies to
the 2nd order dynamical matrices. The dynamical matrices for the 8 points in
Hello everyone,
I hope everyone is doing well.
I am confused about the convergence of the system I'm testing. The problem
is the following: at the beginning of the simulation, apparently everything
was going well, but some warning messages appeared and I was a little
afraid if everything is ok
Thanks, Paolo and Lorenzo, for your comments.
I will do some tests for the threshold.
But let me point out that this is bulk MoS2, not 2D.
Regards,
Juliana

Dear Juliana,
Indeed the ASR in the old QE version did not include the correct rotational
invariants for 2D systems, i.e. you should have 4 acoustic modes at Gamma that
are zero.
Although, having a closer look to your inputs, I would suggest you to pay
attention to:
1. Why have you commented
I have heard that in 2D systems some acoustic sum rules may yield funny
results for acoustic modes close to q=0. The latest 7.2 version of the
code should contain an improved ASR. See
