[QE-users] Electronic configuration of Rb PAW pseudopotential

Dear QE users and developers,
I am trying to do projected-DOS calculations of rubidium, using Dal Corso
paw PP
Rb.pbe-spn-kjpaw_psl.1.0.0.UPF.
My problem is that although the generation configuration of the PP includes
the unpopulated
orbitals 4d and 5p, the only projections I get from projwfc.x are the
4s,5s,4p and 5p -
without the 4d orbital.
Literature suggests that both the 4d and the 5p orbitals are significant
above the Fermi level,
which may explain the difference I get when comparing the total DOS
calculation to the
sum of all the projected DOS.
I tried using an ultrasoft PP (rb_pbe_v1.uspp.F.UPF), which gives the 4d
and not the 5p
orbital.
Is there any way to get the all the projections?
Many thanks,
Daniela
