Dear Psi-k Community,

NREL is hosting a 4-day school on many-body perturbation theory with the Questaal code 11-14 March 2024 at the NREL campus in Golden, Colorado. Talks on many body perturbation theory will be combined with practical, hands-on tutorials on using the quasiparticle self-consistent GW (QSGW) + Bethe-Salpeter equation (BSE) approximations implemented in Questaal.

The school is aimed at researchers interested in performing high-fidelity, first principles simulations on real materials and may be of interest to lecturers, postdoctoral researchers, and experienced Ph.D. students.

Local costs, including individual accommodation close to NREL, lunch, transport to the laboratory and a conference dinner are covered for in-person attendees. Remote participation will be possible using zoom. There is no registration fee.

Registration deadline is 31 January 2024.
