The exciting Code
exciting is a full-potential all-electron density-functional-theory package implementing the families of linearized augmented planewave methods. It can be applied to all kinds of materials, irrespective of the atomic species involved, and also allows for exploring the physics of core electrons. A particular focus are excited states within many-body perturbation theory.
LATEST NEWS:
It is with deep regret that we have to inform you that the Hands-on Tutorial on Excitations in Solids - HoW exciting! 2022 is canceled. The COVID-19 pandemic and the war in Ukraine make it very difficult to run the event. Therefore, we have to cancel it and hope that we will be able to organize HoW exciting! next year.
