Dear Poonam Sharma,

You can try the following:

- In the PW input, remove "nbnd=120" - this is not needed

- In the PW input, I suggest to specify "conv_thr" in the range from 1.d-10 to 
1.d-15

- In the HP input, reduce the q-mesh from 8x8x8 to 2x2x2 (U must be converged 
w.r.t. the q-mesh, so start with scarce q-meshes)

- In the HP input, try alpha_mix(1)=0.1. If this does not help to converge the 
calculation, then you can try alpha_mix(1)=0.05.

Subject: [QE-users] hp.x calculations not converging

Dear Experts,
I am trying to calculate the U parameter for FeS. My scf calculations 
converging successfully, I am facing converging issue in hp.x calculation. I  
am attaching here my input and output files.

I'll be very thankful for any help and suggestions.

Thanks and regards,
Poonam Sharma
