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.

Back to Job listings...
Applications are invited for an industry-sponsored post-doctoral position in the Department of Chemical and Biological Engineering at Illinois Institute of Technology, Chicago, initially for a period of one year, but renewable. The project would involve nuclear spin conversion at a catalyst surface. Desired qualifications for a potential candidate include:
(i) Experience in classical molecular dynamics (MD) simulations in heterogeneous systems and adsorption on periodic solids, and use of MD software (LAMMPS or other).
(ii) Experience in spin-polarized DFT calculations in periodic magnetic solid surfaces (VASP or other)
(iii) Some background in spin-spin hyperfine interactions and energy exchange accompanying interfacial phenomena
(iv) Expertise in programming languages (python, fortran, C/C++) and writing in-home scripts for handling, analyzing, and visualizing MD and magnetic solids results (VMD, VESTA, etc.).
Applicants should direct any questions about this position to Prof. S. Murad at [email protected]. To be considered for this position, send a detailed CV and arrange for two letters of reference to be sent to [email protected].
