Dear Espresso users I am calculating CrAs in the hexagonal NiAs structure and in order to study different types of antiferromagnetic arrangement, the in plane lattice parameters (a,b) are doubled. I am using an "automatic" k-mesh of 10x10x14 while the output number of (irreducible) k-points are:
number of k points= 2170 It is strange to me because I expect that the number of kpoints in the irreducible wedge of the BZ should be less than the total number of kpoints that I think should be around 10x10x14 = 1400 points. I searched the archive but unfortunately did not find any answer and so your comments in this regard is highly appreciated. This system has 4 Sym.Ops. (with inversion).
