<p>Hello,<br>
</p>
<p>A reasonable value of alpha is between 0 and 0.5. Typically zero or close to zero for metals and in the range 0.15-0.5 for antiferromagnetic correlated systems. There are a certain number of papers in the literature about alpha. Is there a particular reason
 why you want to use LDA-Fock rather than the popular HSE?<br>
