[Wien] calculation of electron-phonon coupling constant

Hello

I´m trying to evaluate the following Multiple Scattering formula which yield
the
tan of the phase shifts d at the energy E and raddi R.

tan d =(RK j'_l(KR) -b_l j_l(KR) ) / (RK n'_l(KR) -b_l n_l(KR) )

where b_l are the logarithmic derivatives of the radial function u_l at R
and E, K is
sqrt(E) and j, j' n, n' are the spherical bessel the r-derivative of the
spherical bessel
and the corresponding neumann functions.

Everything is tested and works pretty fine.

I tried to evaluate the  b_l (logarithmic derivatives of u_l) by means of
the "Potential Parameters"
obtained in lapw1 (sub atpar) employing the linear definition of u_l

u_l(r,E) = u_l(r,E_l) +(E-E_l) du_l/dE

Now, trying to reproduce the well known results for Nb, I obtained
significant differences in the phase-shifts.

I feel that I´m dropping out something in the u_l construction.
In the formal theory, u_l involves two constants A_l and B_l. In atpar they
are already considered?

Any help is acknowledged.
