Can Abinit handle SOC+magnetic system?

Post by zjuer » Wed Aug 07, 2013 1:17 pm

Hello all,
I want to calculate megnetic system with spin-obital coupling(SOC) effect, can abinit calculate such a system? How should I set the key related input variables.
Thanks for your help.

Yes. Look up the variables nspinor, nspden and spinat.
