[CP2K-user] [CP2K:13100] SCAN XC density functional: Do we have to use specific PSEUDOPOTENTIALS for SCAN? Are they available?

[Vyacheslav Bryantsev]

Dear Juerg and All,

Thank you for recommendations.
With regards to very high cutoffs, what should I try?

I startred with CUTOFF 600 and REL_CUTOFF 100, and this does not seem to 
work.
Which setting would you recommends for SCAN XC?

Thank you,
Slava


    &MGRID

      CUTOFF 600

      REL_CUTOFF 100

    &END MGRID

    &SCF

      MAX_SCF     150

      EPS_SCF     1.0E-6

      SCF_GUESS   RESTART

      &OUTER_SCF

        EPS_SCF 1.0E-6

        MAX_SCF 40

      &END

      &OT T

        MINIMIZER         CG

        PRECONDITIONER    FULL_ALL

      &END OT
