Dear Dorothea,
thank you very much for your answer and the link. There is something i 
don't get: from looking at the basis set definitions in appendix B.2 or the 
CP2K distribution, i can't figure out how the number of exponent sets of 
the LRI basis set (*i* equation 5.35 i think?) relates to the original 
basis set. So for example C DZVP-MOLOPT-GTH has 7 exponents and 5 sets of 
contraction coefficients. C LRI-DZVP-MOLOPT-GTH-* has 15 sets of exponents. 
B DZVP-MOLOPT-SR-GTH has 4 exponents and 5 sets of contraction 
coefficients, but B LRI-DZVP-MOLOPT-SR-GTH has 10 sets of exponents. How i 
the number of sets in the LRI basis set determined?

I hope this is not a stupid question and thank you in advance.
Phillip
