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.

PhD position on NMR/MuSR (plus DFT) in 5d metal ... (No replies)

3 year PhD project offered in the PaRMa group of Prof. Roberto De Renzi on Metal-insulator transitions and Dirac insulators in strong spin-orbit interaction metal oxides.
The project is principally experimental, by magnetic resonance spectroscopies and their ab-initio DFT simulations.

The successful candidate will be designing and performing NMR and MuSR experiments to reveal order parameters and spin/charge dynamics at the magnetic phase transitions of 5d oxides, in close collaboration with the Wien-Bologna group of Cesare Franchini (theory) and Samuele Sanna.
Depending on the candidate preference, the project will include experimental bulk magnetic characterization and/or advanced data analysis techniques including ab-initio methods aimed at the identification of magnetic phases and at the microscopic interpretation of spectroscopic results.

Prior to application (deadline 4 September 2020) candidates are requested to submit CV, transcript of Master in Physics or equivalent, abstract of Master thesis, and 2 reference contacts to [email protected] for a first feed-back. More information on the position here and here (project 9).
