Hi Ole,

Thanks. There was perhaps a misunderstanding with the magnetisation. I had
actually been trying to calculate an isolated Au atom without any valence
SO interaction and in a state that would be a common eigenstate of the S^2
and S_z operators (and I opted for the lowest possible spin multiplicity).

Now I tried the MAGNETIZATION keyword as you suggested and used the value
of 1 for it. The program started to run but then crashed saying
"[sirius::Band::initialize_subspace] error in diagonalziation".

Of course, I understand that there are features not implemented or not
debugged yet, especially concerning SIRIUS support. Anyway, I consider CP2K
an amazing electronic-structure package.

Cheers,
Martin.
