 Dear Nicola,

 Thanks a lot for your reply. The pseudo mentioned by you has one electron
in valence. However,
 from PW-FORUM, I came to know that it might be better to use 9 valence
electrons in case of Cesium (Cs).
 May I get a Cs Ultra-soft  PP (LDA & GGA), preferably with 9 electrons in
valence, from your USPP collection?

 Yours sincerely,
 Suza
