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.

Back to Job listings...
A (senior) postdoc position is available in the research group of Claudia Draxl at HU Berlin, starting from February 1, 2020. The successful candidate is expected to advance and implement methodology in the field of theoretical spectroscopy, and thus will be responsible for the Green-function based methods in the program package exciting, http://exciting-code.org. This concerns in particular GW and the Bethe-Salpeter equation of many-body perturbation theory.
The job also includes (co)supervision of bachelor, master, and PhD students in the frame of various research projects employing methodology described above.
The position is currently limited until October 31, 2021; there is, however, the option for an extension up to totally five years. This period could be used to reach the habilitation (venia legendi) according to the German system.
Requested requirements and skills: The candidate should have a PhD in theoretical physics (or similar); excellent knowledge in condensed-matter theory and computational materials science, in particular many-body perturbation theory and density-functional theory; excellent programming skills (FORTRAN); proven experience in developing scientific software in the area of electronic-structure theory, preferably with all-electron methods; motivation and ability to work independently as well as in an international team; competence in guiding students.
Candidates interested to join a lively and multi-disciplinary international team are welcome to send their application documents together with contact details for two references to Claudia Draxl per Email ([email protected]).
