Tutorials all
This page contains the full list of available tutorials. These cover a variety of mixed topics, both physical and methodological. Some of these are om "Standalone mode" and are designed to be followed from start to finish in one page. Others have been ported in "Modular form". These are also available under the link Tutorials modular. The tutorials do not require previous knowledge of yambo, unless explicitly specified. Each tutorial requires download of a specific core database, and typically they cover a specific physical system (like bulk GaSb or a hydrogen chain). Ground state input files and pseudopotentials are provided. Output files are also provided for reference.
These tutorials can be accessed directly from this page of from the side bar. They include different kind of subjects:
Warning: These tutorials were prepared using previous version of the Yambo code: some command lines, variables, reports and outputs can be slightly different from the last version of the code. Scripts for parsing output cannot work anymore and should be edited to work with the new outputs. New command lines can be accessed typing yambo -h
