Dear DHILSHADA V.N.,

1) users writing to this forum are usually kindly requested to sign messages with their name and affiliation

2) for getting help one should provide as many details as possible, to allow others to figure out the kind of error and suggest possible solutions, if any.

"Bad termination error” could be related (generally speaking) to lot of problems, from code bugs (unlikely in your case) to operating system issues to bad compilation or libraries and so on.

If you just google “bad termination error quantum espresso" you end up, among the many, for example with
https://lists.quantum-espresso.org/pipermail/users/2015-May/032338.html <https://lists.quantum-espresso.org/pipermail/users/2015-May/032338.html>
where it is suggested
Error 9 = SIGKILL = some serious error. See the FAQ for "Segmentation
fault", it's nmore or less the same

So general explanations can be found here:
https://www.quantum-espresso.org/faq/faq-frequent-errors-during-execution/#5.2 <https://www.quantum-espresso.org/faq/faq-frequent-errors-during-execution/#5.2>

More specific help could be provided if you include input and/or output and/or any other information might help to give help!

Giovanni

But it shows an error in output file of band structure calculations.The error is bad termination error. Could you please help me to resolve this problem?
