[QE-users] users Digest, Vol 163, Issue 22

Dear Prof. Baroni and Cyrille,

Thank you for reply

My aim is to calculate spin constant parameters myself (not all of them are
determined by DFTB) using QE. I am studying magnetic systems using both
semi-empirical as Cyrille said and QE code (HSE06). I would like to compute
them using QE that the comparison makes more sense.

Best regards

Toufik
