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.

Seaborg Institute Actinide Materials Discovery Postdoctoral Associate
Idaho Falls, ID, USA
The Idaho National Laboratory (INL) is seeking a well-qualified Seaborg Institute Postdoctoral Research in Materials Science or Physics or comparable discipline in the Nuclear Science and Technology Division. You will join the modeling and simulation effort to support ongoing and future efforts in the Nuclear Materials Discovery and Qualification initiative (NMDQi). You will focus on interfacing with technical staff on developing workflows to advance INL’s capabilities in modeling actinides; materials characterization (X-ray CT, TEM, XRD, SEM, etc.); and advanced numerical algorithms to discover novel thermal, mechanical and physical properties associated with actinides. Combined experimental, computational, and analytical techniques will be employed to understand actinides under extreme conditions that may include neutron/ion irradiation, corrosion, and/or high-temperature applications. Density functional theory and related computing frameworks and ontologies, for capturing near and longer time and defect-scale simulations of f and d-element material chemistry will be explored.
