<p>Both ways should in principle lead to exactly the same results, except maybe for systems like FeO with multiple low energy local minima.<br>
</p>
<p><span style="font-size: 12pt;">May</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">be the first way would in total require less iterations, since only one mBJ calculation is needed (mBJ converges faster than PBE).</span><br>

<div>Dear Wien2k users,</div>
<div><span class="gmail-VIiyi" lang="en"><span class="gmail-JLqJ4b gmail-ChMk0b"><span>For mBJ+SOC calculation, should I start with a SOC calculation (with PBE) and then I continue with mBJ (init_mbj and scf with -so) or else I have to start with an scf with
mBJ (without SOC) then I continue with SOC (init_so)?</span></span></span></div>
