Dear Krack,
thank you a lot for your comments. The &BS section seems to be really
usefull but I am struggling to obtain the actual electronic configuration
of my system (Y3Fe5O12). I am trying to model theese Fe3+ (d5) ions, where
Fe1 will be spin up and Fe2 will be spin down using the attatched &BS
section on the input.
&KIND Fe1
ELEMENT Fe
BASIS_SET SZV-MOLOPT-SR-GTH
POTENTIAL GTH-PBE-q16
&BS
&ALPHA
NEL -2 -1
L 0 2
N 4 3
&END
&BETA
NEL -2 -4
L 0 2
N 4 3
&END
&END
&END KIND
&KIND Fe2
ELEMENT Fe
BASIS_SET SZV-MOLOPT-SR-GTH
POTENTIAL GTH-PBE-q16
&BS
&ALPHA
NEL -2 -4
L 0 2
N 4 3
&END
&BETA
NEL -2 -1
L 0 2
N 4 3
&END
&END
&END KIND
The electronic configuration of Fe is [Ar] 4s2 3d6 and the one of Fe3+
ions is [Ar] 3d5, so I tried to extract both 4s electrons and 1 of 3d in
each spin orientation, but in the output I see that there is something
wrong:
Guess for atomic kind: Fe1
Electronic structure
Total number of core electrons
10.00
Total number of valence electrons
11.50
Total number of electrons
21.50
Multiplicity
triplet
Alpha Electrons
S [ 1.00 1.00] 1.00
P [ 3.00] 3.00
D 2.50
Beta Electrons
S [ 1.00 1.00] 1.00
P [ 3.00] 3.00
D 1.00
Guess for atomic kind: Fe2
Electronic structure

How could I configure the &BS section to obtain an accurate description of
my system?
Thanks in advanced.
Best,
Diego
