Hello
There is something I don't get about geometry optimization.
In conjugate-gradients - does CPMD perform line minimization after
calculating new search direction or just does a step in that direction, proportional to the
new gradient? Also, in quasi-newton methods?
I have sometimes troubles in geometry optimization, and I have to switch
from one method to another depending on the stage,
but I could not find an answer to my question in the CPMD manual.
