As Gavin told you, one does not add a magnetic field but a magnetic energy to the up and down parts of the potential. I just wanted to know whether you thought about the added energy in comparison to the magnetic energy of your system. For example, in Fe you have a "magnetic energy" in the ordre of 1 Ry and I guess the energy added by a field of 8 T will not change the result of a calculation.
Note that the symmetry reduction by the magnetic field is not accounted for when you do not use an SO calculation. Ciao Gerhard DEEP THOUGHT in D.

Actually my system has magnetic (2) and non-magnetic (3) species. As B_ext. means we are apply magnetic field on the whole system then why do we need to select natorb = 2 ? Bext is applied to the iatoms (i.e., in atomic spheres) that you specify in case.inorb. The program searches for file case.vorbup, if it finds it, Bext energy is add to Vxc in atomic spheres and in interstitial region [ http://www.wien2k.at/reg_user/textbooks/orbital_potentials.pdf (section "4.1 LAPW0 package" on page 6)]. Secondly could you please clarify to me about "adjusting the "direction of Bext in terms of lattice vectors" line in case.inorb. ". Any example please or guidance that how to make it. For example, y = x*tan(theta) = 1*tan(32 degrees) = 0.62487 [ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trigonometry ] Consider a cubic lattice with the "direction of Bext in terms of lattice vectors" set to: 1 0.62487 0 Calculation of the angle between vector (1,0,0) and vector (1,0.62487,0) with octave: username@computername:~/wiendata/case$ octave octave:1> a=[1 0 0] a = 1 0 0 octave:2> b=[1 0.62487 0] b = 1.00000 0.62487 0.00000 octave:3> angle_rad=acos(dot(a,b)/(norm(a)*norm(b))) angle_rad = 0.55851 octave:4> angle_deg=angle_rad*180/pi angle_deg = 32.000 This gives an angle of 32 degrees with respect to the (100) axis.
