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.
Computational Theory of Magnetic Topological Mat ... (No replies)

Applications are being accepted for a postdoctoral position to be supervised by Prof. David Vanderbilt in the Department of Physics and Astronomy at Rutgers University, to start as early as January 1, 2019. The project will be focused on the computational search for, and physical understanding of, magnetic topological materials, including axion insulators and magnetic Weyl semimetals. It is part of a larger collaboration involving substantial interaction with experimental colleagues involved in the synthesis and characterization of candidate materials. Expertise in first-principles density-functional methods is essential; experience in the treatment of magnetism and spin-orbit coupling, and exposure to the theory of topological materials, is vitally important and will weigh heavily in the selection process. Interested candidates should apply online at jobs.rutgers.edu/postings/75135. Screening of candidates will begin in October and will continue until the position is filled.
