[QE-users] Electronic band structure calculation for each q in ph.x

2023-02-26 Thread KRISHNENDU MUKHERJEE
Dear pw-user, I note that during ph.x calculation, electronic band structure is calculated for each q. Can you please let me know why? I guess the probable reason could be that, it is important to know the Fermi energy surface to calculate the phonon dispersion. Thank you,

[QE-users] Bands calculation with lda+U and constrained magnetization

2023-02-26 Thread Johnson, Miles R.
Hi All, I've seen this problem posted in a few places, and I'm sure it has been answered but not in the places I've looked. lda+U computations only work with constrained magnetization (i.e. nspin=2), but the bands.x executable throws an error "The bands code with constrained magnetization has
