Dear Quantum Espresso Developers,
My name is Toshiharu Higuchi. I am a beginner of Quantum-Espresso.
I would like to study and discuss on “The QE Users Forum”. 
I have tried the following process.
However, my question did not post on “The users Archives”.
Could you please show me how to post correctly?

Title: A question about the orbital of a hydrogen atom.
Question: 
My name is Toshiharu Higuchi. I am a beginner with Quantum-Espresso. This is
a question about the orbital of a hydrogen atom. I calculated the orbital of
a hydrogen atom using Quantum-Espresso. The orbitals of the hydrogen atom
have already been analytically solved.  These orbitals are (1) s-orbital is
a spherically symmetric orbital, (2) p-orbitals have two lobes with a node
located at the nucleus, and (3) d-orbitals have two types of orbitals, one
kind of orbitals consist of a cloverleaf shape, with four electron-dense
lobes, and another type of orbital has two lobes oriented in the z-axis with
a donut-shaped ring in the x-y plane.

However, the orbitals obtained with Quantum-Espresso (assuming the ILDOS
pattern as the orbital) were all spherically symmetric orbitals from the
first orbital to the tenth orbital. I was not able to obtain a pattern with
a shape like p-orbital or d-orbital. 
Could someone tell me why the orbital turned out like this?

By the way, the input data is as follows.
