45. 2. This is so called Löwdin population analysis.The PDOS projected onto a given atom or a group of atoms is then obtained by summing the PDOSs of all atomic orbitals located on these atoms. In the present case - due to the use of ultrasoft pseudopotentials - the PDOS equation contain also an augmentation term; see Ref. 59 for the corresponding full expression.
46. v, k is the corresponding energy eigenvalue. In the present case - due to the use of ultrasoft pseudopotentials - this equation contain also an augmentation term; see Ref. 59 for the corresponding full expression.
