## Namelist: &LR_INPUT
This namelist is always needed !
prefix | CHARACTER
Default: | 'pwscf'
>     Sets the prefix for generated and read files. The files
>     generated by the ground state pw.x run should have this
>     same prefix.

outdir | CHARACTER
Default: | './'
>     The directory that contains the run critical files, which
>     include the files generated by ground state pw.x run.

verbosity | INTEGER
Default: | 1
>     This integer variable controls the amount of information
>     written to standard output.

itermax0 | INTEGER
Default: | 500
>     Number of Lanczos coefficients to be read from the file.
[Back to Top]
itermax | INTEGER
Default: | 500
>     The total number of Lanczos coefficients that will be
>     considered in the calculation of the polarizability/absorption
>     coefficient. If itermax > itermax0, the Lanczos coefficients
>     in between itermax0+1 and itermax will be extrapolated.

extrapolation | CHARACTER
Default: | 'no'
>     Sets the extrapolation scheme.
>   `'osc' :`
>       biconstant extrapolation
>   `'constant' :`
>       constant extrapolation
>   `'no' :`
>       no extrapolation.

epsil | REAL
Default: | 0.02
>     The broadening/damping term (in Rydberg units).
[Back to Top]
units | INTEGER
Default: | 0
>         The unit system used for the output and the start, end and increment
>     input parameters.

>     0 = Rydbergs, 1 = Electron volts and 2 = Nanometres per electron volts.
[Back to Top]
start | REAL
Default: | 0.0
>       The polarizability and the absorption coefficient are computed
>     starting from this value. In units set by the units variable.
[Back to Top]
end | REAL
Default: | 2.5
>       The polarizability and the absorption coefficient are computed
>     up to this value. In units set by the units variable.
[Back to Top]
increment | REAL
Default: | 0.001
>       Incremental step used to define the mesh between start and end.
>     In units set by the units variable.
[Back to Top]
ipol | INTEGER
Default: | 1
>     An integer variable that determines which element of the
>     dynamical polarizability will be computed:
>     1 -> alpha_xx(omega), 2 -> alpha_yy(omega), and
>     3 -> alpha_zz(omega). When set to 4, three Lanczos chains
>     are sequentially performed and the full polarizability
>     tensor and the absorption coefficient are computed.

eels | LOGICAL
Default: | .false.
>     Must be set to .true. for EELS. EELS-specific operations
>     will be performed.

td | CHARACTER
Default: | 'lanczos'
>     When set to 'lanczos', a calculation of the spectrum is
>     performed using the Lanczos coefficients.
>     When set to 'davidson' or 'david', a calculation of the
>     spectrum is performed using the eigenvalues computed
>     using the Davidson algorithm. See the variable 'eign_file'.
[Back to Top]
eign_file | CHARACTER
Default: | 'pwscf.eigen'
>     The name of the file produced by the turbo_davidson.x code,
>     in which are written the eigenvalues.
