22. For the case where they do overlap a simple pairwise interaction correction is simply added to the energy.
23. The energy cutoff in the context of planewave codes is the one used to represent the wave functions. The density requires four times that value, i.e., a planewave calculation converging with a cutoff of 50 Ry, requires 200 Ry for the density. Figure 1 shows that our code converges diamond with 50 Ry directly for the density.
