[Pw_forum] how to obtained the eigndisplacement by eignvector in PWSCF

I do not quite get the question.
It is the mass of Pb as found in any perdiodic table: 207.2 amu (see  
www.webelements.com)

Atomic masses should also be specified in the "ATOMIC_SPECIES" card  
whose format, in the present case, should be something like:

Pb 207.2 Pb_pseudopotential_file_name

Are you confused instead by the negative value of the frequency?  
(this has nothing to do with masses)

Hope this helps - Stefano
