Hi

Please try this one instead. This is only for the initial guess. There is
no guarantee that the electronic configurations will converge to what you
expect after the SCF calculation. Please double check the magnetic moments
on each atom after the calculation. You may find more discussion on the
usage of &BS in the following post by Marcella:
