Empty weight file for BSE

You can find here problems arising when using old releases of Yambo (< 5.0). Issues as parallelization strategy, performance issues and other technical aspects.

Empty weight file for BSE

Post by Bruno » Thu Jun 30, 2022 1:19 pm

Hello,

I recently ran some BSE calculations, and now I'm doing some exciton analysis. By using ypp I could extract the exciton oscillator strenght and amplitude for some of the states, but for some other ones the generated weight file is empty. Note that for the very same state the amplitude file seems normal, and its plot also does. Is it expected for some of these files to be empty? If that's the case, why?

Dear Bruno,

no, it is not expected, in order to spot the problem you should post input/report/output etc..

Best,
Daniele
