Dear cp2k community,
I have two charged systems I want to perform a single energy calculation.
System a) Neutral molecule with a Lithium at some distance
System b) Charged molecule (cut out of a larger molecular structure, so 3
Hydrogens are missing)
For both calculations, my energy either diverges or makes jumps.
Usually I have performed calculations with neutral molecules, not charged
systems, so I am not familiar with the proper procedure. I followed the
example give here https://www.cp2k.org/exercises:2014_ethz_mmm:hfx_h2ion
I defined my Charge in the DFT section, as well as using LSD option and
switched to a Nonperiodic system - as far as I understand this is
necessary? Do I need to define the multiplicity of my system as well ?
Cheers,
Andreas
