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.

A PhD position as part of the European Commission-funded Doctoral Network EUSpecLab, a collaboration between 23 universities and companies is open at Uppsala University, Salary conditions, travel/mobility allowances, and benefits follow the attractive EU amounts for Researchers in the HORIZON- MSCA-2021-DN-01 call. The EUSpeclab project contains a mix of 11 theoretical research-oriented PhD projects. The PhD student will be enrolled on the Physics PhD program at Uppsala University Science which has a strong expertise in computational materials studies including fundamental properties, materials for applications, and code development. The supervisor of the project will be Dr. Heike Herper (Uppsala University) and the co-supervisor within EUSpecLab will be Dr. Didier Sébilleau from CNRS (Rennes, France). As part of the project, there will be mandatory visits to different academic and industrial collaborators within EUSpecLab.
The goal is to develop a high throughput method which allows to identify new Ce-based systems with tailored functionalities (thermoelectric, magnetic, etc.). This includes the extension of the RSPt code to study M4,5 edges in XAS/XMCD and to optimize the spectroscopy part of the code for high-throughput use.
