You cannot include RLOs in optical calculations (not supported).

Spin-orbit will be included anyway in the Hamiltonian when running lapwso. RLO are just a "basis set - enhancement". It is usually important to enhance the basis set for semicore p-states with RLOs, but not the valence/conduction band states. And for optical properties the latter are of more or less only importance (except for high energies).

Dear Prof.Pr. Blaha, Dear Wien2k users

I have few basic fallowing queries about the spin orbit interactions in
wien2k.

I am trying to understand about "How spin orbit interactions or coupling
effects were taken in to account in wien2k  code for calculating the
band structure and optical properties with RLO's taken into
consideration?" .
Please give some information about What exactly happens In case of
optical properties calculation without inclusion of RLO's in wien2k?  I
could not able to found  papers which discussed the clear methodology.
Please explain and  suggest some important references which will explain
the evolution of Hamiltonian after including the spin orbit interactions
with RLO's.

Thanking you in advance.
