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.

Job description
We are looking for 1-2 highly qualified and highly motivated postdoctoral candidates in computational materials physics with a focus on magnetic properties, to work with Dr. Alexander Edström and Professor Anna Delin at KTH, Stockholm, Sweden. The research, which has emphasis on basic research, will be conducted in close collaboration with Professor Olle Eriksson's group at Uppsala University (materials theory) as well as with several experimental groups. You will use advanced first-principles electronic structure calculations, combined with atomistic spin Hamiltonians and/or phenomenological models to study fundamental magnetic and topological phenomena from a computational/theoretical perspective. Current research interests in the group include flexomagnetism, emergence of topological magnetic textures, topological magnons, 2D magnetic materials, and ultrafast physics in magnetic systems. The studied physical phenomena are of relevance for future information technology such as ultra-low-power spintronics and devices for neuromorphic computing.
