Chososing orbital weightage in Si bulk

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.

Chososing orbital weightage in Si bulk

Post by sitangshu » Fri Feb 24, 2017 7:06 am

Dear Sir

While doing the gs calculation of Si bulk, orbital weightage calculation in the script defines
s_orb = [0,16]
p_orb = [1,2,3,17,19,20]

I understand that these numbers are to be looked into projection log file under the bands folder. However, I am wondering what these numbers are telling me actually. :roll:

Dear Sitangshu,

these numbers are which atomic orbitals you are representing. The list of atomic orbitals (atom, orbital) is in the file bands/projwfc.log
