[Wien] how to find Stoner parameter using wien2k

[David Tompsett]

Hi Shamik,

Sayed's advice is good. There are also some procedures based on Fixed spin
moment calculations. You will have to think carefully about whether your
system is metallic or locaised type. The links in the appendix to this paper
should help:

Best,
David.

>> According to the Stoner band theory of magnetism, one can able to predict

>> ferromagnetic using product of the non magnetic density of states around the
>> Fermi level (N(E)) and the Stoner parameter (I). As given in some of the
>> literature, the Stoner parameter  can be described as the exchange integral
