<p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">Dear QE users, </p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">I am running some simple calculations for the phonon life-time in fcc-Nickel due to electron-phonon interaction.(method described here in: <a href="http://arxiv.org/abs/cond-mat/0504077" class="">http://arxiv.org/abs/cond-mat/0504077</a>)
The q grid for phonon part is kept at 6*6*6. The K-point grid is checked with 18*18*18, 24*24*24 and 30*30*30. <o:p class=""></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">When I turn on magnetism, I have some problems calculating the phonon line-width for the 30*30*30 K-point mesh. The calculation gets stuck at a certain q point, and the last few lines of
the elph output is as follows. The number under PW is zero, which is not the case for other q point. Can someone comment on this problem? For nonmagnetic calculation, it is totally fine. </p>
