[Pw_forum] J-average

[Stefano Baroni]

This is because you are attempting a non-relativisic calculation (i.e.  
without explicit account of spin-orbit effects) using a relativistic  
potential. In order to do so, the program would have to perform an  
appropriate average of the potential corresponding to different j  
channels, which is not yet implemented. I do not know whether the  
version of the code that is available on the web already allows to do  
spin-orbit calculations. If this is the case, then you have to use the  
spin-orbit option to utilize that potential. If not, just wait the next  
release of the code. Hope this helps. Regards - Stefano
