General announcements

Messages from the Psi-k trustees and other topics of relevance to the Psi-k community, e.g. community-led software codes or databases…

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.

Dear electronic-structure community, 🥂

With more than 100 million calculations with billions of datasets, the NOMAD Repository has broken a new record. These were created by billions of CPU hours invested at high-performance computer centers worldwide by around 40 different community codes. Missing codes will be added upon request in collaboration with the code developers.

We are also happy to announce that we recently released a new version of the NOMAD Repository & Archive. Searching and downloading of raw data and normalized data and uploading new data is now possible with a unified graphical user interface (GUI) and API. Just explore https://nomad-repository.eu/.

NOMAD works in great synergy with the Materials Project, AFLOW, OQMD, and other important data stores of the field. It is now a key component of the association FAIR Data Infrastructure e.V. (https://fair-di.eu).

You are welcome to join NOMAD, upload your files, and tell us your experience! We are serving the whole community and like to improve.

Check out also our open positions see: https://www.fair-di.eu/vacancies

In addition, we are looking for code developers for developing exascale-ready libraries for the electronic-structure community (see above link for instructions on how to apply).

With best wishes,
Markus Scheidgen, Claudia Draxl, Matthias Scheffler, and the entire NOMAD team
