Dear Wien2K community,
                        I am currently using the latest version of the
WIEN2k package (*Version: WIEN2k_23.2*). I am calculating the *momentum
matrix elements* using the OPTIC module as implemented in the WIEN2k
package. From userguide I found that the momentum matrix elements will be
written in *case.mommat2* file.
                        I am performing SOC included calculations on TaAs
using the *PBESol* as an exchange correlation functional. My *TaAs.inop*
file looks like:

99999 1       number of k-points, first k-point
-0.5 0.5 9999 Emin, Emax for matrix elements, NBvalMAX
2             number of choices (columns in *outmat): 2: hex or tetrag. case
1             Re xx
3             Re zz
ON            ON/OFF   writes MME to unit 4
1

I have observed that *once the scf converged ground state is obtained*,
there is *no change in the momentum matrix elements values *(in
TaAs.mommat2 file) *if we repeat the calculations* of TaAs.mommat2
file. *However,
if I rerun the scf calculations again from starting and then obtain the
TaAs.mommat2 file, the data in the file gets changed (considerable changes
are observed).* Note: All the parameters during these two calculations are
kept the same. I am showing below the output file (TaAs.mommat2 file)
obtained during the two calculations.

*First calculation:*

   Complex momentum matrix elements: (Re_x,Im_x),(Re_y,Im_y),(Re_z,Im_z)

I am observing that almost all the values are getting changed. So, if I am
using these values to calculate some transport, I am getting different
result each time (*I have verified it*). Please guide me regarding what is
going on here. *Also, how can I get the correct values of momentum matrix
so that I can get reliable results upon using them in some other
calculation.*

*Thanks and Regards*

*Yours Sincerely*
