Hello,

there is nice the work of Trombach et al., https://doi.org/10.1039/C9CP02455G  .

Authors constructed D3 enhanced PAW potentials for some superheavy elements, but only in VASP POTCAR format (see them in http://www.rsc.org/suppdata/c9/cp/c9cp02455g/c9cp02455g3.zip , also http://www.rsc.org/suppdata/c9/cp/c9cp02455g/c9cp02455g2.pdf) .  These  8 potentials are free to use.

Is there a viable way to convert these POTCAR files into format suitable for Quantum Espresso ?

Best, Miro

PS: I asked similar question on Abinit forum, https://forum.abinit.org/viewtopic.php?t=4469 .
