Dear friends,
I'd like to consider spin-orbit coupling using VASP. I have written the following INCAR and I've run it using VASP4.6. But the results seem to be wrong. Please help me if something is wrong.
Thanks,
Farzaneh

Re: Spin-orbit coupling
I think maybe it is because you have not specified MAGMOM tag in x.y.z for each atom.
Re: Spin-orbit coupling
More information are needed about what you consider as wrong in the output. But I can immediately see that you are using PBEsol which was not implemented in VASP 4.
