Siesta
Program description:
SIESTA is an ab-initio calculation code that uses the electron density functional (DFT) approximation and the pseudopotential method. This software uses a database of atomic orbitals. SIESTA allows you to calculate the band structure, magnetic properties, optimal geometry of the unit cell, implementation of molecular dynamics and much more.
Versions:
Name: Siesta Version: 4.0 Platform: x86_64 Category: Applications/Engineering URL: http://icmab.cat/leem/siesta/
