»GoVASP uses VASP evaluates charges only within a specific radius – the Wigner-Seitz (WS) radius. The total charge is the sum of all WS spheres and the contribution from the interstitial space. You can set the WS radius for each atom by specifying the parameter RWIGS in the Add to Input panel. V12: I get an error trying to perform a VASP calculation on a hexagonal system! In the SCF panel of the VASP interface, check either the box for Shift origin to Gamma or that of Use odd size grids. V13: I get an error when performing a DOS and Band structure calculation with VASP! Check the file Job.out for the following message: “Can’t use empty string as operand of “*” while executing” . If this error occurs, divide the band structure calculation into a number of tasks. To do so, modify the Number of k-points per task in the Band structure panel of the VASP interface.
