Dear CP2K users

 

I would like to calculate core electron binding energy using GW100 method 
in CP2K.

https://www.cp2k.org/howto:gw

 

I started with a simple test, using a sulfate ion, SO42-, in vacuum to 
calculate the S2p lines.

I first optimized the structure of SO42- in vacuum at PBE level, and then 
perform a GW100 calculation on the optimized structure to obtain the core 
levels. See attached the input files I used

 

All the calculations run well, with no problem.

What bothers me is the S2p lines. My understanding reading the literature 
was that GW100 should include spin-orbit coupling. Thus S2p lines should be 
split into two levels: S2p(1/2) and S2p(3/2) (fine structure). Looking at 
the output (GW100.out) I see no splitting

*-165.279*

…..

 

Is there something wrong in my understating of GW100 and/or in my output?

 

Thank you very much for any possible help or suggestion…the method is new 
to me.

 

Best regards

Ivan
