[Pw_forum] Question about charged supercell

Is it correct that I generate a pseudopotential for a "+1"-charged atom, 
then if I use that pseudopotential in molecule "A", the global molecule "A" 
becomes positively charged; while if I use it in molecule "B", it will be 
charged?

Subject: [Pw_forum] Question about charged supercell


Dear QE Developers and Users,
 
I have constructed a supercell containing two molecules "A" and "B" well 
separated by, say, 15 Bohrs distance. Now I give a total charge +1 for the 
cell. How the code decides to assign the charge +1 to molecule "A" or "B"?
Any comments is highly appreciated.
 
Best regards,
                    Mahmoud Payami
