he RMG developers are pleased to announce the release of version 4.0 of RMG, which is an open source DFT based code that uses real-space grids to represent electronic orbitals, charge densities and potentials. RMG is designed for high performance on clusters or supercomputers but works well for workstation-class problems as well. It uses extensive multi-level parallelization and provides full GPU support. Version 4.0 is a major release that includes a number of new features, as well as bug fixes and performance enhancements. Version 4.0 provides support for stress calculations, non-collinear magnetism, spin-orbit coupling, DFT+U, hybrid functionals and exact exchange, as well as an interface to QMCPACK. The latest code can be downloaded at either Sourceforge or github. (https://github.com/RMGDFT/rmgdft/releases/tag/v4.0.0). The on-line help files and examples have also been significantly enhanced.

The source code is available. Binary packages for different platforms are in the process of being generated.
