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 Positions in Theoretical Condensed Matter at ... (No replies)
Back to Job listings...
Up to seven Ph.D. positions in Theory and Numerical Simulation of Condensed Matter are available at the International School for Advanced Studies (SISSA) in Trieste, Italy ( http://www.sissa.it/cm ). The deadline for the online application is April, 1st.
The Condensed Matter group features a wide spectrum of activities including the development of the Quantum Espresso project ( http://www.quantum-espresso.org ), new methods to treat electronic correlation in Density-Functional Theory, Dynamical Mean-Field Theory calculations of correlated materials, Quantum Monte-Carlo simulations of model systems and materials, the investigation of physical and chemical properties of surfaces, interfaces and nano-structured materials, and non-equilibrium quantum systems.
Possible supervisors include Prof. S. Baroni, M. Capone, A. Dal Corso, S. de Gironcoli, M. Fabrizio, G. Santoro, A. Silva, S. Sorella as well as researchers of the Condensed Matter Group at ICTP (R. Fazio, R. Gebauer, M. Kiselev, S. Scandolo and A. Scardicchio) and of the Democritos Centre of IOM-CNR (F. Becca, S. De Palo, S. Fabris, S. Moroni, S. Piccinin, A. Vanossi). The condensed matter group also hosts several projects financed by the European Research Council, the European Union and others.
SISSA students and researchers also benefit from collaborations with the Elettra Synchrotron Radiation Facility and the University of Trieste.
The candidates will be selected after evaluation of the candidate qualification and an interview which can also be performed by videoconference (Skype or similar platforms). The successful candidates will start their Ph.D. on October, 1st. Candidates are required to obtain a Master Degree before the end October 2016.
