Keyword WEIGHTING

This keyword specifies the weight function for the grid partitioning.
Options:
SCREENED / BECKE
SCREENED A screened weight function is used. This is the default.
BECKE The original Becke weight function is used. This option also activates the calculation of weight derivatives.
Description:
The BECKE weight function [287] introduces a cubic scaling into the grid generation [288]. By introducing a new piece-wise defined weight function [118], near linear scaling for the grid generation can be obtained. This weight function is specified with the option SCREENED.
