Dear QE developers,
I found that physical constant conversion factors are incorrect in the q-e
version 6.2 and 6.4.1. For example, Bohr to ang conversion factor is around
0.529177208591, while nist codata value (
https://physics.nist.gov/cgi-bin/cuu/Value?bohrrada0) is 5.291 772 109 03
e-11
In this case, the polarization quantum is twice what it should be

Dear QE users,
For a large system calculating phonons in the whole BZ is so time-consuming.
Is there any way that after calculating phonons at Gamma point derive the
phonon density of states and the corresponding contributions of each atom to it
(phonon pdos) at this point?
Many thanks in
Hi
You have plotted the band structure in particular path in BZ but, DOS
is plotted over volume or atom i think.
This may also sometime lead to mismatch of the band gap, check your
k-point path used to plot the band structure.

Dear all,
Thank you very much for your suggestions.
@Pietro: Do I understand you correctly that there is already some work
in progress on making bandUP compatible with the newest QE version?
Please let me know if there is any way I can help, e.g. with testing the
code.
Best regards,

Dear all,
I tried to find something in the archive but was not successful.
In noncollinear calculations I can plot the spin expectation values
using bands.x.
Those are calculated using the standard Pauli matrices. Yet, spin is not
a good
quantum number anymore once I have SOC. Thus, I

Check the literature, there are many studies of NiO using DFT+U. For example,
see Fig. 2(b) in Campo and Cococcioni, J. Phys.: Condens. Matter 22, 055602
(2010). You can try to use exactly the same parameters of
