Announcements of conferences, workshops, schools…
Due to the large number of posts recently, there is currently a delay of several weeks between posts being submitted and the corresponding emails being distributed to all users. Please bear with us while we try to improve this. In the meantime – and until this notice is removed – it would assist us considerably if you could submit only important and/or urgent posts and thus help to reduce the size of the mail queue. Under no circumstances should you resend posts multiple times when you find the emails are not distributed immediately.
In light of the Russian military offensive in Ukraine, we request that announcements relating to events, jobs and other activities associated with institutions supported by the Russian and Belarusian states are not posted to the Psi-k forum.
[Webinar] From Superconductors to Giant Planets: ... (No replies)

Dear Colleagues,
We are thrilled to announce another enlightening session in our MatSQ Webinar Series at Materials Square. It is our pleasure to cordially invite you all to this event. Please register via the following link: https://www.materialssquare.com/webinar
In this webinar, we are honored to host Prof. Chris J. Pickard, the Sir Alan Cottrell Professor of Materials Science in the Department of Material Science and Metallurgy at the University of Cambridge. Prof. Pickard's cutting-edge research allows scientists to explore the universe at the atomic scale through Quantum Mechanics. His work spans a wide array of subjects, from the centers of giant exoplanets to pharmaceutical compounds, new battery materials, and high-temperature superconductors. Prof. Pickard has significantly contributed to the field as the lead developer of the widely used CASTEP computer code and introduced both the GIPAW approach to the prediction of magnetic resonance parameters and Ab Initio Random Structure Searching (AIRSS).
In this webinar, titled "From Superconductors to Giant Planets: A Computational Window on Materials," Prof. Pickard will delve into modern methods for computing the properties of realistic materials from first principles, starting from quantum mechanics. With the advancement of computational resources and machine learning, it is now possible to search through vast compositions and arrangements of atoms to discover new materials with extreme properties or under conditions that are challenging to access experimentally.
Webinar Title: "From Superconductors to Giant Planets: A Computational Window on Materials” (University of Cambridge, UK)
