Example: qsGW with frozen core: Br2¶

#!/bin/sh

# Standard qsGW calculation using the frozen core approximation in the
# correlation part. An all electron basis set is required.
# The execution time will roughly stay the same, but numerical convergence
# is better since problems with analytical continuation of core states
# are completely avoided. The frozen core approximation only affects the
# correlation part of the self-energy.
# The number of core states are being chosen using a default scheme. 
# For Br, the frozen core is Argon.
# Symmetry NOSYM is required in case of MBPT%frozencore

# Note that the used DZ basis set is too small to get accurate results.
# Recommended is to use at least TZ2P.
