- Using adpack (version 1.8) to calculate pseudopotentials for carbon ( see input
file below), it happens that increasing the grid.xmax parameter from its default value (2.5) up to 5.0 determines different pseudoatomic orbitals and pseudopotentials. What is the origin of these instabilities ?
Here is my input file
