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.

A postdoctoral position is available in the Chair for Theoretical Chemical Physics (TCP), led by Prof. Alexandre Tkatchenko in the Department of Physics and Materials Science (DPhyMS) at the University of Luxembourg (http://www.tcpunilu.com). This research project is embedded within a strong collaboration between the TCP group and an internationally-leading pharmaceutical company.

 We are looking for motivated, independent, and skilled scientists to join our group. As part of the TCP group, researchers will have ample opportunity to exchange ideas, transfer knowledge, and to pick up new expertise. Our publications (https://scholar.google.com/citations?user=o2t1Pv8AAAAJ&hl=en) provide a perspective on our research directions. 

 The applicant will develop and apply atomistic modeling methods for an efficient and accurate modeling of terahertz (THz) spectra of molecular crystal polymorphs. The work will involve employing a variety of first-principles methodologies, using materials discovery and informatics tools, and deploying machine learning for efficient spectroscopic simulations. 

 DPhyMS at Uni.lu is a quickly growing physics department composed of 19 dynamic research groups, spanning the broad domains of condensed matter, molecular, and quantum physics. The University of Luxembourg is a young, dynamic, and well-funded university rapidly growing in international rankings. Luxembourg is a small European country with a very high quality of living and is bordered by France, Belgium, and Germany.

 The positions are open to strong applicants with backgrounds in physics, chemistry and/or multidisciplinary background. We offer competitive salary and attractive working environment in one of the most enjoyable European cities (http://www.euraxess.lu).

 Interested applicants should send their CV, motivation letter, and contact data for two referees. For more information and applications contact: Prof. Dr. Alexandre Tkatchenko ([email protected]).
