Dear all
just a simple system of O2
***
system= O2

optimized and then calculate the bader charges(PAW-PBE)
the ACF.dat:

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
VACUUM CHARGE: 0.0000
VACUUM VOLUME: 0.0000
NUMBER OF ELECTRONS: 12.0000
why the two O atoms have different charges?
