ALDAC = [real]
Default: ALDAC = 1.0 if AEXX $\neq$ 1.0 or 0.0 if AEXX $=$ 1.0

Description: ALDAX is a parameter that multiplies the LDA correlation functional or the LDA part of the GGA correlation functional.

-The sum of the fraction of the exact exchange and LDA exchange is always 1.0, and it is not possible to set the amount of LDA exchange independently. Examples: if {{TAG|AEXX}}=0.25, 1/4 of the exact exchange is used, and 3/4 of the LDA exchange is added. For {{TAG|AEXX}}=0.5, half of the exact exchange is used, and one half of the LDA exchange is added.
-The amount of LDA correlation included in the hybrid functional can be specified through the {{TAG|ALDAC}}-tag.
-The amount of gradient correction to the exchange and the correlation contributions can be set indepently, however (some [[list_of_hybrid_functionals|popular hybride functionals]] for instance use only 0.8 of the gradient contribition to the exchange). The GGA flags {{TAG|AGGAX}} and {{TAG|AGGAC}} are only used if GGA is already selected (for LDA type calculations no gradient correction will be added regardless of values is used for {{TAG|AGGAX}} and {{TAG|AGGAC}}).
