Abinit

ABINIT is a software suite to calculate the optical, mechanical, vibrational, and other observable properties of materials. Starting from the quantum equations of density functional theory, you can build up to advanced applications with perturbation theories based on DFT, and many-body Green's functions (GW and DMFT).

Availability and Supported Architectures at NERSC

Abinit is allowed at NERSC and runs on CPUs. Experimental GPU support is available.
