For calculation of E(N-1) we need to set the following flags in the &SYSTEM namelist:

nspin=2               ! Note, now we have unpaired electrons:
tot_charge=+1         ! charged system
tot_magnetization=1   ! we need to set a total magnetisation

Also, the following option needs to be used for charged systems :

assume_isolated="mt"

Using ecutwfc=50 Ry and 35 au of cell size,

 E_tot(N) = 
 E_tot(N-1) = -192.89782124 Ry

How do -eps_HOMO and delta-scf values compare ?
