<div class="moz-cite-prefix">thank you for your answer. I thought
if there is no time reversal symmetry also the combinations with
other symmetry operations should be forbidden. Then it is quite
similar to e.g. screw axes with a combination of
rotation+translation although there don't need to be a rotation
present?</div>
<div class="moz-cite-prefix">My system is orthorhombic. So the
twofold axis plus time reversal leave the spin direction
unchanged, right? Question marks started by comparing QE with
the LAPW-code Elk. In the Elk code it seems that
rotation+time-reversal is not used for k-point reduction.
However, this should then be a question for the Elk forum....</div>

all, <br>
<br>
I am performing non-collinear magnetic calculations with
spin-orbit interactions with QE 6.5. As far as I have
understand, for a ferromagnetic system time-reversal symmetry
should be broken in this case. <br>
<br>
Although the program detects the right magnetic double point
group, the k-points grid is set up with time-reversal symmetry
and I have to set the no_t_rev flag manually to disable this. Is
there any reason why this isn't done by default (e.g. these
calculations can be done safely with a more reduced k-points
grid...)? Do I miss something? <br>
<br>
