Dear siesta users,

Does anybody have access to pseudopotential files for Co outside those provided 
in the SIESTA database? Specifically pseudopotentials that include partial core 
corrections and relativistic corrections.


I ask because I have noticed that, although well known that norm-conserving 
pseudopotentials give exaggerated exchange split for magnetic metals, the 
addition of partial core correction (and relativistic correction) seems to 
diminish the effect.


I have seen this effect for the GGA pseudopotential for Fe, and expect 
something similar for Co. But whereas for Fe I have found a pp with both 
corrections, I find none for Co.


In short, If anybody can generate or has access to LDA pseudopotential for Co 
which includes both relativistic corrections AND partial core corrections, 
could you please share it with me?

Thanks a lot,


Diana
