LIBMBD_ALPHA = [real (array)] 

Description: LIBMBD_ALPHA defines the free-atom polarizability (bohr) for each atoms defined in the POSCAR file within the Tkatchenko-Scheffler and many-body methods as implemented in the library libMBD of many-body dispersion methods[1][2][3].


LIBMBD_ALPHA defines the free-atom polarizability (bohr) for each atoms defined in the POSCAR file within the Tkatchenko-Scheffler and many-body methods as implemented in the library libMBD of many-body dispersion methods[1][2][3].

Important: This feature is available from VASP.6.5.0 onwards that needs to be compiled with -DLIBMBD.

libMBD is a separate library package that has to be downloaded[2] and compiled before VASP is compiled with the corresponding precompiler options and links to the libraries.
