I'm glad of that, at least all the efforts I put in writing it could be useful to someone (thanks also to those who corrected the manuscript...)


Cheers,

As you say, the atomic wavefunctions are built from the radial part R_nl(r), which is taken from the pseudopotential file, and the spherical harmonics. However you should not forget that there is also structure factor which comes from the translation of the nucleus from the origin.
