[CP2K-user] M06-2X DFT functional

[Frederick Stein]

Dear Subhasish,

The DFT part of M06-2X should be XC_HYB_MGGA_XC_M06_2X. It is basically the 
combination of XC_MGGA_X_M06_2X and XC_MGGA_C_M06_2X. When you want to use 
M06-2X within CP2K, you have the following options:
1) Within 6.1.0 use XC_MGGA_X_M06_2X and XC_MGGA_C_M06_2X.
2) Within 6.1.0 adjust the code by either using the patches in 
https://groups.google.com/forum/#!searchin/cp2k/wb97x%7Csort:date/cp2k/ARya5uM-pA4/2wt5PgtkAQAJ by 
Stanislav or applying the patches from PRs 304 and 422 (
https://github.com/cp2k/cp2k/pull/304, https://github.com/cp2k/cp2k/pull/422) 
and use XC_HYB_MGGA_XC_M06_2X.
3) Use the latest trunk from CP2K with XC_HYB_MGGA_XC_M06_2X. (The PRs from 
2 have already been included.)
Please keep in mind that you need an additional HF section in all of these 
three cases.

Best regards,
Frederick
