Dear Megan, the code calculates the orbital shift and it is included in the 
numbers. Only one term of the Knight shift is implemented, and I never 
reproduced the results of Mayeul. Idk. I'm afraid it is useless now.
Best.

Subject: Re: [QE-users] NMR of Metallic Systems

Hi Nicola and Davide,

Thank you for your responses! So would I be correct in understanding that the 
NMR calculations for metals will correctly calculate the orbital portion of the 
shift, but will not include the Knight contribution? Or is it the case that if 
there is a Knight shift, I will not see convergence with respect to k-points?

Nicola - from my understanding of your paper, you did perform the Knight shift 
calculations, but they were more difficult to converge with respect to smearing 
that the orbital shifts. Given that the Knight shifts are not implemented, does 
this mean that the method did not extrapolate well to other systems, so was not 
added to the published version of Quantum Espresso?

Thanks again,
Megan

Spot on! We worked on this a long time ago -
https://journals.aps.org/prb/abstract/10.1103/PhysRevB.76.165122
and I always wondered if wannier interpolations could help - we hadn't
the time then to try that out.
