1. Spin: specifies spin polarization, 1:non-spin-polarized calculations, 2:spin-polarized calculations (collinear).

Ni.SG15.PBE.UPF

1. You can submit PWmat tasks in different ways:

   mpirun -np 4 PWmat | tee output

Run the command directly

   #!/bin/bash
   #PBS -N SCF
   #PBS -l nodes=1:ppn=4
   #PBS -q batch
   #PBS -l walltime=100:00:00
 
   ulimit -s unlimited
   cd $PBS_O_WORKDIR
 
   mpirun -np 4 PWmat | tee output

Note Submit the task with a pbs script

1. For spin-polarized calculations (collinear), the main output is REPORT file, you can read magnetic moment from it.

   grep "spin_up;dn;loc_diff" REPORT | tail -1

>>> spin_up;dn;loc_diff  =       9.3432875202        8.6567124798        0.7832247298
