Hi,
When optimizing the lattice constant of bcc Fe,the result is a=2.830A, which is
in disagreement with experimentally derived structural parameter a=2.863A.Could
someone give me some advice?
&CONTROL
calculation = 'vc-relax'
prefix='Fe1',
pseudo_dir = '/public/home/duan1/gw2/pseudo/',
outdir='/public/home/duan1/gw2/tempdir/'
tprnfor = .true.
tstress = .true.

&SYSTEM
ibrav= 1,
A=2.8664

ntyp= 1
occupations='smearing',
smearing='mp',
degauss=0.02,
ecutwfc =37
ecutrho =240
nspin = 2
starting_magnetization(1) = 0.4

&ELECTRONS
conv_thr = 1.0d-8
mixing_beta = 0.7
