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.

Dear all,
A position as Postdoctoral Research Fellow is available at the Department of Geosciences / Center for Earth Evolution and Dynamics, within the Norwegian Research Council (NFR) project “HIDDEN”.
We seek a postdoctoral research fellow to study the partitioning of noble gases between the Earth’s mantle and the core during the processes of core formation and crystallization of the magma ocean. The methodology envisaged is to compute the partitioning between liquid silicates and molten iron-based alloys using first-principles molecular-dynamics calculations coupled with thermodynamic modeling and /or machine learning force fields.
The candidate must have a PhD or other corresponding education equivalent to a Norwegian doctoral degree in mineralogy or condensed matter physics or chemistry.
We require:
(1) experience with ab initio molecular-dynamics methods based on density-functional theory
(2) experience with thermodynamic integration or with generating interatomic potentials using machine learning methods
(3) a solid basis in thermodynamics
Knowledge of python is a particular advantage.
A strong record of successfully communicating research results via publications and conference presentations are assets.
The application with attachments must be delivered in our electronic recruiting system at :
