[Wien] the difference of the total energy is about 10 eV using wien16.1 and wien17.1

[tran at theochem.tuwien.ac.at]

Hi,

What about the magnetic moments of the two FM+U calculations? Are they
the same or also different?

>The k-point mesh was taken to be 11*17*10 and correspond (U-J) is 2 eV.  However,  the difference of the total energy of the AFM+U calculations for CoAs Wien16.1 and  Wien17.1 is almost zero.
