Dear Colleagues,

Does some one know if it is possible to recover the l-dependent potentials from the 'atomic'/'ld1' code for educational, or plotting purpose? This of course only in the norm-conserving, Troullier-Martins case. We tried to look up both the options in the input and the items written into the .UPF file (after I had already written a Python script to extract various fields), but could not find it in either of them. As the last resort, I guess that the 'beta' function would be

  beta(r) = [ V_l(r) - V_local(r) ] phi(r) ,

so as phi(r) is given, one could obtain the V_l(r) by inverting the 'beta' from this equation? And the normalisation, are the matrix elements D_ij contain the (Kleinman-Bylander) factors 1 / < psi(r) | V_l(r) - V_local(r) | psi(r) >, or are there some hidden coefficient for normalisations (à la 4pi).

  Sorry if this is a FAQ. :(
