Exciton momentum grid

Post here any question you encounter when running the scripts of the yambo-py suite. Post here problem strictly to the python interface as problem coming from the yambo runs should go in the appropriate subforum.

Exciton momentum grid

Post by kle2797 » Thu Sep 08, 2022 11:11 pm

Dear developers,

Is there a way to use yambopy to obtain the exciton momentum grid that yambo use for the finite-Q momentum BSE calculation? That would be very helpful.

Dear Dear Khoa Le,
can you be more explicit on what you need exactly?
The momentum q grid used for the finite-q BSE is the same use for q=0 calculation and it is reported in the report file.
The Q momentum for the BSE is chosen by setting it in the input file (% BSEQptR namelist).

Best,
Daniele

Ah, thank you. I have found the list in the report files and can get it now. That was all I need.
