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.

*** Apologies for cross-postings ***

One post-doc position is available in the research group of Prof. Vincenzo Barone (http://smart.sns.it/) at the Scuola Normale Superiore in Pisa, Italy, with expected starting period late summer/early fall. The appointment is for 1 year with a net salary of ~19000-20000 EUR.

The appointed researcher will work on a project on chemical reactivity under the supervision of Dr. Sergio Rampino with the possibility of focusing on the following topics:

* Development and application of bond-analysis techniques through virtual reality

* Development and application of computational models for gas-phase reactivity in astrochemistry

Candidates should have a Ph.D. degree in Physics, Chemistry, Materials Science or closely related disciplines and an overall strong motivation. Knowledge of electronic-structure methods, scientific programming and high-performance computing are highly welcome.

The Scuola Normale Superiore (https://www.sns.it/) is a teaching and research centre founded by Napoleon in 1810 and located in the historical centre of Pisa, Tuscany, 600m off the Leaning Tower. With its ~500 students selected exclusively on the basis of merit and an optimum teacher to student ratio (about 1 to 10), the Scuola Normale Superiore is a unique and vibrant community devoted to cross-disciplinary research and one of the top-rank Italian universities featuring three Nobel Laureates (Giosuè Carducci, Enrico Fermi and Carlo Rubbia) among its former Alumni.
