Description
**Describe the bug**
%6 difference was observed between ElecElec and MPC:
ElecElec value is 62.106388 +/- 0.010347
and MPC value is 66.049150 +/- 0.010230.
The difference is incomparative with the kinetic energy correction:
KEcorr value is 0.004562 +/- 0.000003
**Expected behavior**
The order of (MPC-ElecElec) is comparable with KEcorr.
**To Reproduce** and **System:**
Go to qmc directory in the attached archive file and perform qmca commands:
qmca -e 200 -a -q ee *s003.scalar.dat
qmca -e 200 -a -q mpc *s003.scalar.dat
qmca -e 200 -a -q kc *s003.scalar.dat
The QMC run was performed on Summit in ORNL.
The job submission script is qmc.bsub.in.
The binary was compiled by Ye Luo for GPU.
I am not sure how the binary was compiled.
The binary version is
