Due to the large number of posts recently, there is currently a delay of several weeks between posts being submitted and the corresponding emails being distributed to all users. Please bear with us while we try to improve this. In the meantime – and until this notice is removed – it would assist us considerably if you could submit only important and/or urgent posts and thus help to reduce the size of the mail queue. Under no circumstances should you resend posts multiple times when you find the emails are not distributed immediately.

Back to General announcements...
Dear Psi-K community:
We are excited to announce the first release of PERTURBO, a software package for ab initio calculations of electron-phonon interactions, charge transport, and ultrafast carrier dynamics in materials.
The current release can compute:
The code supports calculations with or without spin-orbit coupling, using norm-conserving or ultrasoft pseudopotentials. Wannier interpolation is employed to speed up the calculations.
PERTURBO is efficient, highly parallelized (with MPI plus OpenMP), and carefully tested. Its workflows are intuitive and user friendly. We encourage you to visit the PERTURBO website, https://perturbo-code.github.io , and download the code and use it for your current project on electron-phonon interactions and carrier dynamics.
The paper describing PERTURBO is available on arXiv:
