Hi Ada,

no, I said it would a add in a core charge at the nuclei equal to the Z 
effective of the pseudo at the atom centre. 

What is required for getting a correct topological description to get AIM 
descriptors? I haven't read up on it.

Adding in an atomic density that does not respond to the valence density 
could be made into a fairly simple post-processing step - is that what is 
needed, the [core] atom density (from an isolated atom) added to the 
density cube file?
