<div>I have not found a way to compute J from the same LRT that is used to evaluate U. The straightforward extension of the approach to compute U (through perturbing on-site magnetization) is possible in QE (that’s what Hubbard_beta is for) but I was not able
to obtain reliable results. I have not had a chance to work much on this so I cannot tell you more. </div>
<div>Perhaps you could estimate J by computing U for a magnetic ground state and for a non-magnetic one and taking the difference between the two values. However this is not completely right as the two ground states are different and, presumably, screening
would be different too.</div>

<div class="">I was curious if there is any other way to get U and J, I know some codes have implemented schemes in the constrained RPA way but how could one get this from QE?</div>

<div>I’m not aware of any attempt to use QE for cRPA calculations of U and J.</div>
<div><br class="">
</div>
<div>However I would like to mention that we have recently completed an implementation of the LRT approach that, based on DFPT, is more efficient, scalable and more user friendly than the one based on supercells. You can find the details in PRB 98, 085127 (2018).</div>
<div>An initial implementation of this reciprocal-space approach will become available with one of the next releases of QE.</div>
