30. loc=2.7. Two values of the core radii indicate a channel which was pseudized with the US scheme. In such case, the first value is the norm conserving core radius and the second is the ultra-soft one. The same core radii were taken for the j=l+1/2 and j=l-1/2 channels when not explicitly indicated. The same radii were used also for the SR PPs.
