Dear Alexandra

TRAVIS considers with 27 the full nuclear charge for Co, but CP2K employs in your case most likely a semi-core GTH pseudopotential with 17 valence electrons only (q17). That might explain the difference of 10=27-17.

Subject: [CP2K:16833] Using TRAVIS to analyze CP2K MD runs using Wannier-Centers

Dear cp2k community,

I am trying to calculate vibrational spectra from MD simulations using CP2K.

I have a metalloorganic cobalt complex for which I am simulating a trajectory with Wannier centers, as has been described here http://www.travis-analyzer.de/files/travis_ir_raman.pdf

>From a cp2k run I get a name_wannier.xyz trajectory, which I then analyze with TRAVIS. When TRAVIS asks me about charges, I keep the default value for the Wannier centers of 2.0.

I also keep the defaults for all other atoms as :
    Enter core charge for atom type C: [4.0]
    Enter core charge for atom type Co: [27.0]
    Enter core charge for atom type H: [1.0]
    Enter core charge for atom type N: [5.0]
    Enter core charge for atom type O: [6.0]

However, when TRAVIS then calculates the total charge of the molecule, it ends up being too high, 11 instead of 1.

What am I doing wrong?

Best regards,
Alexandra
