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.

The research group of Gabriel Antonius, affiliated with Université du Québec à Trois-Rivières (Canada) and the Hydrogen Research Institute, is looking for a master or Ph.D. student for a project in numerical physics.

The goal of the projet is to identify catalytic materials for the production of green hydrogen by electrolysis. This process allows the conversion of electrical power into chemical energy, and produces hydrogen without any CO2 emissions, which can be used to propel a hydrogen electric vehicle. The student will perform atomistic simulations based on density functional theory (DFT), in order to compute the chemical stability of various compounds and identify the most promising materials for the design of electrolyser cells.

The project may start in January 2021 semester or May 2021 semester. The student will be encouraged to apply to scholarships, but will be granted a salary to allow them to perform their research at full time. A degree in physics or chemistry is required. To apply, please send your resume and transcript to [email protected]. Also be ready to provide a recommendation letter upon request.
