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 in computational spintronics (No replies)

The Quantum Transport Theory Group, led by Prof. Branislav K. Nikolic at the University of Delaware, invites applications for a postdoctoral position in theoretical and computational spintronics based on Dirac materials, such as topological insulators and graphene. Applicants are required to have a Ph.D. in theoretical condensed matter physics or related fields. Applicants with experience in density functional theory (especially via codes like VASP and OpenMX), maximally localized Wannier functions, nonequilibrium Green functions, nonequilibrium many-body perturbation theory techniques, and massively parallel scientific computing will be given priority in consideration. The group utilizes some of the fastest supercomputers in the world (such as TACC Stampede and SDSC Comet, as well as two smaller clusters located at the University of Delaware). Applicants should provide a Curriculum Vitae, which includes a list of publications and at least three references, as well as a statement of research interest. The position is initially for one year, starting January 2016, with possible extensions. Screening of applicants will start immediately.
