Job announcements relevant to people interested in electronic structure calculations…
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.
Ph.D. in computational physics on energy storage ... (No replies)

The research group of Gabriel Antonius, at Université du Québec à Trois-Rivières and the Hydrogen Research Institute, is opening two Ph.D. positions in numerical physics.
The projects aims to study battery electrode materials, as well as catalyst materials for clean hydrogen production using first-principles calculations. The student will employ a combination of DFT and molecular dynamics simulations to simulate catalytic processes and ionic diffusion. They will use different programs with a Python interface to interact with external materials databases and perform the computation on a Linux platform.
The project aims to start in the Winter 2025 semester, with some flexibility. Students will be encouraged to apply to scholarships, but will be granted a salary to allow them to perform their research at full time. Candidates must have a master’s degree in physics, chemistry, or a related discipline with emphasis on numerical simulations, and a good knowledge of the Python programming language. To apply, please send your resume by 2024-05-10 to [email protected] with the email subject: Application UQTR 2025.
