Hello, <br><br>In the GIPAW example for quartz, the nuclear quadrupole moment of 17^O is written as: Q_efg(2)= +2.55 (also in the qe-forge CVS Repository). According to P. Pyykko: Mol. Phys. 106 (2008) 1965-1974, it should be: Q_efg(2)= -2.56. <br>
<br>This new and revised "Year-2008 Nuclear Quadrupole Moments" table by Prof. Pekka Pyykko is also available at:<br><a href="http://www.chem.helsinki.fi/~pyykko/Q2008.pdf">http://www.chem.helsinki.fi/~pyykko/Q2008.pdf</a><br>
