[Pw_forum] Spectra from GW and TDDFPT

[Giuseppe Mattioli]

And, practically speaking, you can obtain corrected (i.e., quasiparticle) 
eigenvalues by using GWW, and absorption spectra by using turbo_lanczos, that 
is, the GW and TDDFPT current implementations that you find embedded into the 
QE (4.3) distribution. Within the above limitations, the computational cost 
of both methods can be considered rather low.
