PROCAR file

For static calculations, the file PROCAR contains the spd- and site projected wave function character of each band. The wave function character is calculated by projecting the wavefunctions onto spherical harmonics that are non zero within spheres of a radius RWIGS around each ion. RWIGS must be specified in the INCAR file in order to obtain the file (see section 6.32).

Mind: that the spd- and site projected character of each band is not evaluated in the parallel version if NPAR$\ne$1.
