LmtART

  • Level of openness 3 ★★★
  • Document quality 2 ★★☆

An open-source application for all-electron first-principles calculation based on augmented plane-wave basis. It performs electronic-state calculation such as band calculation of solids and structure optimization. The all-electron method, which treats core electrons explicitly, improves accuracy compared with pseudo-potential methods. This package can also treat strong electronic correlations by combining electronic-state calculation with the dynamical mean-field approximation.

VisBAR

  • Level of openness 3 ★★★
  • Document quality 2 ★★☆
A set of Python scripts for post-simulation data analysis of large-scale electronic state calculations. Currently the open script is ‘VisBAR Wave Batch’ that visualizes many wavefunctions, as isosurfaces, simultaneously. The script generates picture files in PNG and other formats from grid data files in the Gaussian cube format. Many data files can be treated in parallelism by MPI.
