[CP2K-user] [CP2K:17429] Issues with stress tensor calculations.

Dear Professor Juerg Hutter,

Thank you for your help. Turning off LONG_RANGE_CORRECTION helped to get 
similar stress tensors for both analytical and numerical methods. However, 
I have also noticed that XC_GRID parameters significantly affect stress 
tensor calculations as well as forces/energy calculations. Please see below 
snapshots of some test calculations with different parameters. Considering 
this, what is the best way to identify the correct parameters for my 
calculations? 

Thanks,
Dina
