There have been several recent emails where people have been confused by just looking at :DIS & :ENE, thinking that these are oscillating so something is wrong. As I have mentioned before, :DIS & :ENE only show partial information. The script Check-mixing shows the important terms, except for the pseudo charge. It is important to look at all the terms, and understand what they mean.
In addition, it needs to be remembered that with MSR1a the Forces are similarly misleading. As the density converges they will converge towards the real forces, but in general they different by 1-10 mRyd/au or even more. Therefore oscillations are not always an issue, except for poorly conditioned problems. _____ Professor Laurence Marks "Research is to see what everybody else has seen, and to think what nobody else has thought", Albert Szent-Gyorgi www.numis.northwestern.edu
