Printing Core Charges for Bader analysis

[Satish Kumar]

Hello CP2K users

I was trying to obtain "proper?" Bader charges (Using Henkelman's program) 
for a CO2 molecule. Right now, I am getting the charge associated with C 
atom to be zero. In VASP, we can add the LAECHG=TRUE tag that will print 
the core charges too (http://theory.cm.utexas.edu/henkelman/code/bader/). 
Doing so in VASP gives a reasonable (around 2 electrons) charge associated 
with C atom. After looking up the CP2K Google group I tried a couple of 
other options in an attempt to get the total (valence + core) charge 
density. I tried the following print sections:

1)


&PRINT

    &E_DENSITY_CUBE

      STRIDE 1

    &END E_DENSITY_CUBE

&END PRINT

2)
  &PRINT
   &E_DENSITY_CUBE
      STRIDE 1
      TOTAL_DENSITY .TRUE.
    &END E_DENSITY_CUBE
  &END PRINT

3) This one gave wrong results I think (number of electrons estimated from 
Bader was 0). 
  &PRINT
    &TOT_DENSITY_CUBE
      STRIDE 1
    &END TOT_DENSITY_CUBE
  &END PRINT
