HESSEMAT defines the Hesse matrix in Cartesian coordinates (𝐇_𝐱 ) for the use in Thermodynamic integration with harmonic reference. For a system containing N atoms, HESSEMAT has (3N+1)(N+1) lines. The first line specifies potential energy V0,𝐱(𝐱0) (in eV) of the relaxed system for which 𝐇_𝐱 is computed. The following 3N lines are reserved for positions in fractional coordinates of all atoms constituting the system, whereby each line should contain three components of position vector of a single atom.
