I would like to perform a phonon calculation
at Gamma making a choice of only a selected number
of irreducible representations. After a proper scf
calculation I use with ph.x with an input file
like the following one:
Phononic spectrum (1) of CoM (at Gamma)
&inputph
amass(1)=1.00794,
amass(2)=12.011,
amass(3)=14.007,
amass(4)=15.999,
amass(5)=55.845,
prefix='CoM',
outdir='/scratch/userinfm/cne0fm4a/CoM/results/',
iverbosity=1,
epsil=.false.,
fildyn='CoM.dm',
nrapp=1,
/
0.0 0.0 0.0
1
The problem is that the calculation seems to proceed ignoring
the nrapp value and the list of numbers I put in the last line
and all the irreps are considered. This happens both for nrapp=1
(one value in the list) or nrapp>1 (nrapp values in the list).
pw.x and ph.x are run on the CINECA cluster where there appears to be QE
ver. 4.1CVS and I would liketo save cpu time by excluding the undesired
irreps.
Using the same syntax (nrapp and the list of irreps at the end)
to modify the scripts of example02 I successfully select only one of the
two irreps for Si with QE ver. 3.2 installed on a desktop pc (reporting
the message "Not done in this run"). Might it be a version issue?
Thanks a lot for your help and time.
