[DFTB-Plus-User] final magnetic moment for each atom in the system

Dear DFTB,

We did collinear spin polarization for our system and have got converged results. Might we ask you help to introduce how we can look at the final magnetic moment for each atom in the system, and furthremore to determine the magnetic properties, such as ferro, anti-ferro, or para? 

Many thanks.

Best regards,

Robyn

This is the error in the Mulliken charges: maximal difference between
the charges used to build the Hamiltonian and those obtained after the
diagonalization of the Hamiltonian. The latter you can see in
detailed.out. The charges used to build up the Hamiltonian are not given
out, they are created by mixing various previous charges.

Best regards,

  Bálint
