Title: DOS vs PDOS
Post by: Nayab Shiraz on July 14, 2020, 22:58

What is the difference between DOS and PDOS? Shouldn't the total DOS from PDOS analysis be equal to the one calculated using DOS analysis? I have  calculated DOS and PDOS for the same configuration and they are quite different.

You can read how PDOS relates to DOS at https://docs.quantumatk.com/manual/Types/ProjectedDensityOfStates/ProjectedDensityOfStates.html#notes.
