[QE-users] Location of Fermi level in spin polarised XAS in xspectra

2020-03-03 Thread Sonu Kumar
Dear QE users and experts, Xspecta assumes one common reference energy level to calculate the total absorption cross-section in DFT+U calculations, which I can understand. However, it separately calculates both spin channel contributions to the absorption cross-section; does it take different

Dear Sydney, Just as an FYI (some developers may correct me here) I don’t think this forum is usually used for providing such instruction, more so for reporting issues and challenges with using and compiling the code. With that said… From what I understand, if you install python via the

[QE-users] recommended math libraries, ELPA and XCONFIGURE

2020-03-03 Thread Michal Krompiec
Hello, What is the recommended math library to link to, for highest performance, on a Intel-based HPC? Is it still ELPA (2017? 2019?), built with the XCONFIGURE scripts? Does anyone have experience with building QE+ELPA with gcc using XCONFIGURE scripts? Thanks in advance, Michal Krompiec Merck
