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.

DESCRIPTION

The Ping Group at the University of Wisconsin - Madison (UW-Madison) invites applications for Postdoctoral Scholar or Scientist openings starting from Jan 1st, 2024 (or earlier). Under the direction of Prof. Yuan Ping, the applicant will develop theory and computational methods based on first-principles many-body theory for excited-state properties and recently developed ab-initio open quantum dynamics methods in her group for spin dynamics, nonlinear optics, and quantum transport properties, and apply them to a wide range of materials such as quantum defects, 2D materials, topological and magnetic materials, and halide perovskites.

Senior position such as project scientist is available based on relevant experiences; student mentoring and grant writing responsibilities are expected.

Applicants with background of condensed matter theory, materials theory, or theoretical chemistry, and significant experience in any of the following areas are strongly encouraged to apply:

developing first-principles methods for excited states and correlated electrons in solids such as Green’s function methods (GW/BSE, DMFT), real-time TDDFT, electron-phonon coupling, spin dynamics, quantum transport, and having experiences in massively-parallel numerical implementations for advanced electronic structure methods.
