Dear PWscf developers and users,

 

I just did calculation of electron-phonon interaction coefficients on
MgB2 using GGA.

 

I am very confused about the output elph file I got, could you please
help me about that?

 

1st question, which Gaussian Broadening value should be right?

2nd question, what gamma values stand for?

3rd question, why gamma value corresponding to the biggest two lambda(
7)&(8) got gamma=********** GHz?

 

Thanks a lot and best regards,

 

LIU, LEI

 

 

The below is part of the output elph file at gamma point I got:
