Hi

there are no default pseudopotentials in CP2K. You have to specify
the pseudopotential in the KIND section. The pseudo is then searched
for in the POTENTIAL_FILE_NAME. The default for POTENTIAL_FILE_NAME
is POTENTIAL and the default directory is /cp2k/data.

There are not many TPSS pseudos available. You either have to generate
them yourself or use PBE pseudos (what most people do).

Subject: [CP2K:9607] What is the default potential used with TPSS functional?

Hi,
Since there is no entry in the GTH_POTENTIALS file for TPSS, I was wondering what potential is used if that file is given for POTENTIAL_FILE_NAME, and TPSS is used for the functional? The calculations proceed without complaint, yet it is unclear which potential in the file is being used.
Thanks!-AS
