Hello, dear experts
I am a beginner of ABINIT, I find some time I have to calculate Muliken population or bond population, for example, using F.M. Gao's emprical formula to calculate the hardness of crystals, [F.M. Gao's etal, Hardness of Covalent Crystals, PRL. 91(2003) 015502], but I find I can't get them with ABINIT, if it can? It seems that Born effective charges are equivalent to atomic population, can they substitute Muliken population or bond population?
best wishs!
ABINIT calculates Muliken charge or bond population
