orthogonality of the core and valence wavefunctions, the latter exhibit strong oscillations within the core region of the atom. +This requires a large amount of planewaves $\ket{k}$ to adequatley model the valence electrons. + +In a very general approach, the orthogonalized planewave (OPW) method introduces a new basis set +\begin{equation} +\ket{k}_{\text{OPW}} = \ket{k} - \sum_t
