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.

The research group of Scott Simpson, professor of chemistry, is looking for a postdoctoral scholar. This is a unique position to train a postdoctoral scholar to be a professor at primarily undergraduate institution (PUI). The position is split 50/50 between teaching and research.
The goal of this project is to explore the limits of the "molecular corking effect" to control hydrogen spillover on single-atom alloys utilizing quantum chemical calculations. Accordingly, the research plan is designed to (1) generate fundamental knowledge of how molecular corks interact with surfaces, (2) explore the viability of various molecular corks for hydrogen storage, and (3) examine the impacts of molecular cork adsorption on single-atom alloys aggregation. State-of-the-art computational methods, including density functional theory calculations and kinetic Monte Carlo simulations, will be employed to reveal the molecular-level phenomena underlying hydrogen spillover and desorption from single-atom alloys.
This position is funded by the NSF with up to 3 more years of funding.
