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.

We are looking for a highly motivated person for the project on computational study of cobalt catalyzed Fischer-Tropsch synthesis. The aim of the project is to use density functional theory (DFT) calculations to develop an understanding of catalyst structure and its correlation with activity and selectivity in the hydrogenation of carbon monoxide to hydrocarbons in the jet fuel range. This project is part of a larger collaboration with other theoretical and experimental researchers.
Research training group
The project will be carried out at the Institute of Catalysis Research and Technology in the group of Prof. Studt (https://www.ikft.kit.edu/english/232.php).
Funding: approximately 38,000 € per year (before taxes).
Candidates
The applicant should have a master’s degree in chemistry, chemical engineering or physics with background in heterogeneous catalysis and/or simulations.
