Dear All,

Could you help ?

-What is the unit of the electrostatic potential at core (see below)?

-What is the unit of E-fermi (see below) ?

-What is the unit of the total charge (see below) ?


average (electrostatic) potential at core
the test charge radii are 1.1712
(the norm of the test charge is 1.0000)
1 -86.7222 2 -86.7222 3 -86.7222 4 -86.7222 5 -86.7222
6 -86.7222 7 -86.7222 8 -86.7222 9 -86.7247 10 -86.7247
11 -86.7247 12 -86.7247 13 -86.7222 14 -86.7222 15 -86.7222
16 -86.7222 17 -86.7222 18 -86.7222 19 -86.7222 20 -86.7222
21 -86.7248 22 -86.7248 23 -86.7248 24 -86.7248 25 -86.8409
26 -86.8409 27 -86.8409 28 -86.8409 29 -86.8408 30 -86.8408
31 -86.8408 32 -86.8408 33 -86.8409 34 -86.8409 35 -86.8409

66 -86.8408 67 -86.8408 68 -86.8408 69 -86.8408 70 -86.8408
71 -86.8408 72 -86.8408



E-fermi : 6.1916 XC(G=0): -9.1935 alpha+bet :-11.0725
add alpha+bet to get absolut eigen values

vasp uses #of e- , Ã… and eV as units.
