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 Helmholtz-Zentrum Geesthacht
is one of the 19 national institutions of the Hermann von Helmholtz Association of German Research Centres e.V. (HGF). Around 950 employees carry out basic research and development work in close cooperation with national and international research institutions, research-oriented clinics and economic and public institutions.
At the Institute of Materials Research
some 200 scientists conduct research in the five sub-institutes "Materials Mechanics", "Materials Physics", "Materials Technology", "Magnesium Innovation Centre MagIC" and "Metallic Biomaterials".
PhD student position (m/f/d)
in computational materials science, theoretical/computational chemistry, physics, inorganic chemistry
Reference code: 50006312_2 – 2019/WT 5
Commencement date: starting as soon as possible
The Institute of Materials Research of Helmholtz-Zentrum Geesthacht is offering a PhD student position (m/f/d) in multiscale modeling of hydrogen storage materials. The position is initially limited for three years (starting as soon as possible).
In the framework of our research on “Novel Complex Metal Hydrides for Efficient and Compact Hydrogen Storage” the Institute of Materials Research at HZG is offering a positions for a post graduate student interested in the development and simulation of hydrides and hydride composites for solid state hydrogen storage. The aim of this work is the characterization, understanding and optimization of novel complex and light metal hydrides as well as their composites for hydrogen storage and batteries. The results are the basis for further optimisation of such materials for mobile and stationary energy storage applications.
The project will be conducted as part of a young, multidisciplinary and highly motivated team within the newly established division for Computation and Simulation. The goal is to form close connections between the team members to approach problems from different perspectives and to create an atmosphere where creative ideas and exchange of knowledge can thrive.
Furthermore, the project will be part of a close collaboration with a renown research institute in the USA which will involve frequent research stays at the partner institution.
