Task: Nanoscale Physics

Description: Debian Science Nanoscale Physics packages

This metapackage will install Debian Science packages related to
4
Nanoscale Physics, which corresponds to the study of physical systems
5
typically ranging from 1 to 100 nm in size. The properties of such
6
systems usually depend on the number of atoms they are made of, while
7
this number is still relatively large for an accurate description.
9
The nanoscale is the meeting point of classical and quantum physics.
10
Previous research efforts were considering either smaller systems, for
11
which everybody could develop their own methods and software
12
independently, or much bigger systems, for which it was clearly
13
impossible to provide a fine-grained description. Addressing the issues
14
raised by the nanoscale requires however cooperative and coordinated
15
efforts in a multidisciplinary context. This metapackage is part of

your focus, in the physics and education-physics metapackages.

Pkg-Description: PAW atomic dataset generator
110
The computer program atompaw generates projector and basis functions
111
which are needed for performing electronic structure calculations based
112
on the Projector-Augmented Wave (PAW) method. The program is applicable
113
to materials throughout the periodic table. It produces an output file
114
containing the projector and basis functions and the corresponding
115
matrix elements in a form which can be read be the PWPAW and ABINIT
116
codes. Additional data files are also produced which can be used to
117
help evaluate the accuracy and efficiency of the generated functions.
