The calculations consist in principle of two steps:
- Self-consistent electronic cycle with core hole.
- Calculation of dielectric function of core electron with the band structure from the SCF run.
In the VASP implementation these two steps are all done in a single calculation. To run a successful XAS calculation the following steps have to be made:
