quantum espresso Definition and 15 Threads

Quantum ESPRESSO is a suite for first-principles electronic-structure calculations and materials modeling, distributed for free and as free software under the GNU General Public License. It is based on density-functional theory, plane wave basis sets, and pseudopotentials (both norm-conserving and ultrasoft). ESPRESSO is an acronym for opEn-Source Package for Research in Electronic Structure, Simulation, and Optimization.The core plane wave DFT functions of QE are provided by the PWscf component (PWscf previously existed as an independent project). PWscf (Plane-Wave Self-Consistent Field) is a set of programs for electronic structure calculations within density functional theory and density functional perturbation theory, using plane wave basis sets and pseudopotentials. The software is released under the GNU General Public License.
The latest version QE-7.1 was released on 16 June 2022.

    A Quantum Espresso Tutorial: h-Boron Phosphide Variable-Cell Relaxation

    Hello my dear fellows, how're you doing? I'm trying to learn how to use Quantum Espresso, and in order to do this, I'm trying to simulate a hexagonal boron phosphide primary cell. At the end of the simulation, the structure seems to be fine, but sometimes the distance of the atoms are too short...

    Which code has superior pseudopotentials for ab initio quantum calculations?

    Guys, I have a questiom. Which do you think is better to use when it comes to ab initio quantum calculations the VASP code or the ESPRESSO code. I am a beginner in computational physics and I would like to know the difference. If you can help me in that, I would more than grateful. Thanks
