Re: Calc. dying with memory issues after exec. of several bl

Well spotted! I've added Neil's fix to the main distribution available on the website.

Re: Problem with runqmc script

Hi JS

You don't need to (and shouldn't) modify the runqmc script. All the machine-specific stuff goes in the architecture files in CASINO/arch/data. Read the manual chapter on installation and look at some examples for other clusters to see how to do that..

Cheers

Hi Fan,

Did you reach any conclusions with this?

Re: DMC energy

OK - nothing obviously wrong with the input.

Can you post the output of the 'graphdmc' utility for the two dmc.hist files.

Re: DMC energy

Dear Fan, The DMC will take a lot longer to equilibrate in the case with the crap Jastrow factor. Are you sure you're not including higher-than-average energies from the unequilibrated phase of the random walk in your statistics (e.g. by setting dmc_equil_nstep = 1000 or whatever in both cases witho...

Re: Twist averaging and wfn conversion in CRYSTAL09

Thanks a lot Mike for the clear explanation. I needed the fort.8 files because crysgen09 wave function converter gives an error if it is not present in the directory. They are rather large actually. At the point the vector of orbital coefficients is created for the QMC (which, remember, may be on a...

Re: Twist averaging and wfn conversion in CRYSTAL09

Besides, on a side note, I would like to ask if there is a way to use crysgen09 converter without fort.8 files? What fort.* files are strictly required for crysgen09 conversion? In older versions of CRYSTAL we had to manually extract data from 4 or 5 temporary fort.x files (from memory: fort.8 or f...

Re: Twist averaging and wfn conversion in CRYSTAL09

However, the resulting gwfn.data (attached) file has only one k point in it, so it is not possible to perform twist averaging upon this conversion, because there is only gamma point in gwfn.data file. Similarly, when our simulation cell in CRYSTAL is already a non-primitive unit cell, for the conve...

Re: Jastrow H-term for Positronic Systems

I realise I have to use the H term of the jastrow factor, but there is no documentation for it. The H term also requires the custom_striplet_dep block. I can’t figure how how to specify the spin-triplet groupings. Some help figuring this out would be appreciated. The H term is defined on p. 66 of t...
