Returns molecule associated with this FiestaInput.

set_BSE_options(n_excitations=10, nit_bse=200)

Set parameters in cell.in for a BSE computation :param nv_bse: number of valence bands :param nc_bse: number of conduction bands :param n_excitations: number of excitations :param nit_bse: number of iterations

set_GW_options(nv_band=10, nc_band=10, n_iteration=5, n_grid=6, dE_grid=0.5)

Set parameters in cell.in for a GW computation :param nv__band: number of valence bands to correct with GW :param nc_band: number of conduction bands to correct with GW :param n_iteration: number of iteration :param n_grid and dE_grid:: number of points and spacing in eV for correlation grid

set_auxiliary_basis_set(folder, auxiliary_folder, auxiliary_basis_set_type='aug_cc_pvtz')

copy in the desired folder the needed auxiliary basis set “X2.ion” where X is a specie. :param auxiliary_folder: folder where the auxiliary basis sets are stored :param auxiliary_basis_set_type: type of basis set (string to be found in the extension of the file name; must

be in lower case). ex: C2.ion_aug_cc_pvtz_RI_Weigend find “aug_cc_pvtz”

write_file(filename)

Write FiestaInput to a file :param filename: Filename

class FiestaOutput(filename)

Bases: object

A Fiesta output file parser.

All energies are in eV.

Parameters

filename – Filename to read.

class FiestaRun(folder='/Users/shyue/repos/pymatgen/docs_rst', grid=[2, 2, 2], log_file='log')

Bases: monty.json.MSONable

To run FIESTA inside python:

if grid is [x,x] then bse runs if grid is [x,x,y] the fiesta(gw) runs otherwise it breaks

Parameters

• folder – Folder to look for runs.

• grid –

• log_file – logfile of Fiesta

as_dict()

Returns

MSONable dict

bse_run()

Performs BSE run

classmethod from_dict(d)

Parameters

d – Dict representation

Returns

FiestaRun

run()

Performs FIESTA (gw) run.

class Nwchem2Fiesta(folder, filename='nwchem', log_file='log_n2f')

Bases: monty.json.MSONable

To run NWCHEM2FIESTA inside python:

If nwchem.nw is the input, nwchem.out the output, and structure.movecs the “movecs” file, the syntax to run NWCHEM2FIESTA is: NWCHEM2FIESTA nwchem.nw nwchem.nwout structure.movecs > log_n2f

folder: where are stored the nwchem filename: name of nwchem files read by NWCHEM2FIESTA (filename.nw, filename.nwout and filename.movecs) logfile: logfile of NWCHEM2FIESTA

the run method launchs NWCHEM2FIESTA
