[Pw_forum] space group number

[Eyvaz Isaev]

Hi,

Probably, nobody knows about this, as there is no way to use only the number and 
get a result. If you look at Int.Table of Crystallography (or Bilbao 
crystallographic website) you can see, there are also a number of symmetric 
positions for atoms in the unit cell. So, one should use not only space group 
number, and choose atomic positions, too. 

In QE you should use all atomic positions, not only that  specified in the 
Table. But, there is  an effort by the group led by Dr. Layla M. who is going to 
apply this technique. Then you will be able to specify the space group number, 
irreducible atomic positions, which will give you all atomic positions in the 
unit cell. So, be patient and wait. Or implement for yourself.

Bests,
Eyvaz.

Subject: [Pw_forum] space group number


Hello QE users

Does anyone know how can I use the space group number in input file for scf 
calculations?
Is there any example or sample file?

Best regards,Payam Norouzzadeh
