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.

One postdoctoral position is available in the numerical simulation group of ICMMO in the Université Paris-Saclay, France. We are looking for an outstanding candidate with a recent PhD degree associated with electronic structure methods and atomic-scale simulations for solid-state materials. Strong expertise in python code development is advantageous.
The objective is to predict the thermodynamic properties of the alloys from interatomic potentials. We have developed a method for the determination and analysis of phase diagrams. This method, based on the use of interatomic potentials, paves the way for the elaboration of a mapping of the thermodynamic properties of alloys, which has never been done before. The project involves developing and testing sensitivity analysis to identify the discriminant parameters (which have a strong influence on the model outputs) by screening method using random procedures and then to replace direct numerical simulation by a metamodel to establish behavioural maps of the thermodynamic properties of alloys.
