Grid

From Zori Wiki

The Zori Grid can be used to accelerate and improve the computational scaling of a QMC calculation. May cost some memory, but in almost all cases it is a worthwile option to use. A GRID must be generate on a single processor job before running a multiprocessor job otherwise the current version of ZORI will fail to generate a GRID

orbitals file option

If < Grid > is not present then no grid will be generated.

  • UseGrid = True or False generate and use a Grid to speed up calculations
  • Padding = radius of the extent the grid from a nucleus (atom center)
  • NumElements = number of elements (cubes) in the grid
