[CP2K-user] [CP2K:17502] Re: Basis sets for NMR

Thank you so much for the suggestions. I have not been able to find a 
difference that explains why one basis set works for nmr and another does 
not. They all seem to work for molecules like TMS. Again, I have been 
trying EMSL 6-31G** which seems to give reasonable results for everything, 
and pcSseg-3, pcSseg-2, and x2c-tavpall-s.1 which do not. However, they all 
give similar PDOS and energies. They do differ in which states are included 
in the Soft GAPW set, but that seems is not unexpected.

Some sample results of the tests for a 6 atom cell of ice X (H2O) at high 
pressure. It has a cubic cell.
