[CP2K-user] [CP2K:19051] Unit conversion for PW_CUTOFF

Hi all,



According to the manual, units for PW_CUTOFF and GK_CUTOFF are [a.u.^-1]. I
am still puzzled by the question of how I should convert a cutoff energy of
80 Ry to that can be accepted by PW_CUTOFF in CP2K.



I discussed it with Dr. Jürg Hutter, but no definite answer was received.
Could anyone provide a clear answer?


Regards
