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.

Postdoc on forces calculation in DFT+DMFT (No replies)

A postdoc position is available in the condensed matter physics group in the CEA in Bruyères le Châtel, South of Paris. The position is funded by CEA and is the result of a starting collaboration with CEA/LITEN in Grenoble.

The aim of the project is to implement forces in the DFT+DMFT formalism. Such implementation should open the way for relaxation of structures, calculation of phonons and molecular dynamics in DFT+DMFT. Application to phonon calculation is expected within the time of the project. The project will be carried out within the ABINIT implementation of DFT+DMFT.

As the position involves code development, prior experience with development is a prerequisite. Experience with DMFT or many body physics would be advantageous but is not a prerequisite. Ability to communicate in English, and to present results in a clear way is required.

The posdoctoral position runs for one year, and can be extended to two years.

The CEA center of Bruyères le Châtel is located in a green area of the south of Paris and well connected to Paris with dedicated buses. The work will imply some travel to Grenoble.

To apply, send a CV, contact information for at least two reference persons and a letter to [email protected] and [email protected]
