BHS pseudopotentials in separable (Kleinman-Bylander) form are a special case of ultrasoft (Vanderbilt) pseudopotentials. It is easier to deal with all types of pseudopotentials in the same way. Note however that the 'old BHS format' read in CP and FPMD does not contain BHS pseudopotentials in separable form, but in the standard semi-local form. They are subsequently converted. The new 'UPF' format instead contains only pseudopotentials in separable form Paolo -- Paolo Giannozzi e-mail: giannozz at nest.sns.it Scuola Normale Superiore Phone: +39/050-509876, Fax:-563513 Piazza dei Cavalieri 7 I-56126 Pisa, Italy
