Preface<br />
This <strong>Manual</strong> is prepared for all users, who want to perform LDA and GW calculations<br />
with <strong>TOMBO</strong> <strong>Ver.2</strong>. Chapters 1-5 describe a basic concept of <strong>TOMBO</strong>, a basic knowledge<br />
for GW, Input files, Output files, and an example of GW calculation of rutile TiO 2 ,<br />
respectively. In Appendix A, usage of the user interface “Materials Studio®” for crystal<br />
calculations is described. <strong>TOMBO</strong> is a first-principles program using the all-electron mixed<br />
basis approach, in which one-particle (Kohn–Sham or quasiparticle) wave functions are expressed<br />
in a linear combination of both atomic orbitals and plane waves. This approach<br />
is described in detail in the following reference. Anyone who publishes any result using<br />
<strong>TOMBO</strong> has to cite this reference:<br />

<strong>TOMBO</strong> can handle both isolated systems and crystal (or periodic) systems in a unified<br />
way. It can perform not only LDA calculations but also GW (+ Bethe–Salpter equation)<br />
calculations.<br />
