Units of output energy and force

Post by gpanchap »

Dear Francois,

Is the default etotal and etotal_int in the utput file in Ry while the default forces in Ha/Bohr ? Thanks.

The energies in the output are in Hartree (i.e. <etotal> <etotal_int> <ekin> <ecoul> etc..).
The ionic forces are in Hartree/Bohr.
The eigenvalues (i.e. within <eigenvalues> .. </eigenvalues>) are in electron-volt.
