I try to calculate the total number and the number of d electron for the Co atom (d8s1 configuration) as the function of the Wigner Seitz radius. To compute this I set in the INCAR the flag
LORBIT=0 and I change the value of the Flag 0.05 < RWIGS < 2.5 Angstroem.
The problem that I find is that for RWING -> 0 the Number of d electrons seems to converge a value of 5.3 electrons
Is there a minimum default sphere of integration or bad input parameter in INCAR file ?
Thanks in advance for your response,
Best regards,
Matthieu
