[Pw_forum] correct values for "nns"

Dear Mohaddeseh,

The r_cut s  you chose seem to be too large and I think for 2S and 2P they 
are quite irrelevant.
In fact, the problem is that still I DO_NOT understand the meaning of "nns" 
parameter.
Thank you so much for your kind contributions.
Any hints from Paolo and Andrea is highly appreciated.
Bests,
mahmoud

--------------------------------------------------Dear Payami,
Actually, I don't have too much experience about generating pseudo 
potential.
However, you may change the rcut in order to generate the desired PP.
E.g. you can run the code by choosing :


5
2S  1  0  2.00  0.00  5.0  5.0
2P  2  1  6.00  0.00  4.50  4.50
3S  3  0  2.00  0.00  4.50  4.50
3P  4  1  1.00  0.00  4.50  4.50
3D  5  2  0.00 -0.10  4.0  4.0

Although, they do not give any reliable results and still you also have to 
get rid of warning in the out file:
"WARNING! Expected number of nodes:   0=     2-  1-  1, number of nodes fou


nd:  1.
Setting wfc to zero for this iteration.
(This warning will only be printed once per wave function)"

Of course, the professionals will give you more comments!

Dear QE users,



I am using the following input for a test pseudopotential 
generation:

---

&input

        iswitch=3,

        rlderiv=2.1,

        eminld=-11.0,

        emaxld=2.0,

        deld=0.01d0,

        nld=5,



        rel=0,

        zed=13.0,

        config="[He] 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p1 
3d-1"

        dft='LDA',

 /

 &inputp

   lloc=2,

   pseudotype=2,

   file_pseudopw='Al.rrkj3_plus_core.UPF',

   zval=11.0,

 /

5

2S  1  0  2.00  0.00  2.40  2.40

2P  2  1  6.00  0.00  2.40  2.40   
 

3S  2  0  2.00  0.00  2.40  2.40

3P  3  1  1.00  0.00  2.40  2.40

3D  3  2  0.00 -0.10  2.40  2.40

I am not sure if I am using correct "nns" values. So, the 
following error message appears:

-----

Any comments is highly appreciated.
