[CP2K:4565] RESP charges

Hi,
If you are running "real" periodic systems and not some molecule embedded
in a big periodic box you want to be careful as to how to define
electrostatic charges from ab-initio calculations. The zero of the
electrostatic potential is ill-defined for periodic systems and different
ab-intio codes can give you very different ESP charges. I worked on this
problem a few years ago a found a simple solution to it. See: J. Chem.
Theory Comput., 2009, 5 (10), pp 2866–2878 DOI: 10.1021/ct9003405
My apologies for the personal blurb but it may turn out useful to you after
all.
Carlos
