your calciulataion is not converged with respect to the number of k-points and/or plane waves, is it ?<br>

Betreff: [Wien] Calculation of Ueff<br>
<div>
<div class="m_-7729586595071949279m_6451582177433692495h5"><br>
Dear Wien2k users,<br>
<br>
<br>
I used the method described by G. K. H. Madsen and P. Novak but I found two different values of Ueff when I changed the number of K-point and RKmax<br>
<br>
For K=1 Point and RKmax 5 i found Ueff=3.6 eV<br>
but For K=100 Points and RKmax 8.5 i found Ueff=5.4 eV<br>
<br>
Do I use one point only ? otherwise I want to know why I had this difference<br>
</div>
