I'm a beginner in DFT and Im using quantum espreso.

I've seen the difference of hydrostatic pressure being used as a criteria for converging my k-point grid and plane-wave cut-off values.

I would like to know the accepted threshold of Hydrostatic pressure (in kbar [as in quantum espresso]) difference used as a convergence criteria.

  • $\begingroup$ As suggested by the related convergence questions Camps posted, the answer is likely going to be "it depends on what you are trying to compute". With some additional detail on your use case, I think this would be an interesting question. $\endgroup$
