[Wien] Question on spin scaling in LDA

[Wen Fong Goh]

Hi,

I am using the spin scaling option to reduce the spin polarization in an antiferromagnetic calculation. I tried xc1 = 0 in both LDA and GGA, but only GGA gives zero magnetic moment. We know that with xc1 = 0, the magnetic part of the exchange correlation functional vanishes (equation 11 in Ortenzi et al.  2012), so the system should become non-magnetic. Do you know what is going on with the spin scaling in LDA?
