Hi Krishnedu,

You don’t need to worry too much about the temperature range of the peak. For anisotropic calculations, we typically take the average quasiparticle gap at a given temperature and fit it either using the BCS equation or a simple guide-to-the-eye fit.

Also, please keep in mind that the tutorials are performed with a coarse grid and lower energy cutoffs. For production runs, you’ll need to increase both the cutoff values and the grid size.

Regards,
Shashi
