[CP2K-user] confusion of pdos calculated results

Dear CP2K Users/Experts,

I have got the pdos file from cp2k run for a metallic orangic molecular (a 
metallic nanocluster). There are C, H, P, S, Ag and Cu atoms in the 
molecular, and therefore produced s, p, d and f states for the atoms. The 
pdos for Ag and Cu seems reasonable. however, the presence of states for C, 
S, P and H are very confusing for me. For C, S and P atoms there are s, p 
and d states present. it is reasonable for those atoms generated d states 
or there are something wrong in my input file?

The following is my input file
