Within WIEN2k a paramagnetic calculation is out of the range, you need; WIENncm: a non-collinear magnetism version of WIEN2k (written by Robert Laskowski ) New VERSION is out since 8. Juli 2008 !!! ---------- These type of calculations are quite computer demanding. We tried a simple case of tetrahedra, which has one non collinear solution with the moments pointing out of the tetrahedra (another is pointing in, etc.), this case needs only 4 independent magnetic atoms, using the Quantum Espresso and we had a poor result.

Para: A Mailing list for WIEN2k users Cc: wien@zeus.theochem.tuwien.ac.at Asunto: Re: [Wien] RE How to do the different magnetic calculation for a material (for example:NiO) Dear A.Reggad: if I remember correctly from textbooks on magnetism, the paramagnetic substance contains local magnetic moments which get aligned by external magnetic field, but tend to disorder at temperature. Consequently, in order to simulate such a material in a first-principle calculation, you need two essential elements: i) a machinery to treat disorder (be it by choice of large enough supercells and averaging over configurations, or, say, within the coherent potential approximation), and ii) - not absolutely demanded but often practical - an option in the code to treat noncollinear magnetic moments. An example of recent calculation along this line (an arbitrarily selected one among many other examples, that however explicitly contains "paramagnetic" in the title): Phys.Rev.B 85, 144404.
