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 DFG-funded International Research Training Group “Cold Controlled Ensembles of Atoms and Molecules” at the University of Freiburg offers 1 PhD Position in molecular interactions in the presence of surfaces:

The theoretical project is aimed to study the influence of neighbouring surfaces on the configurations and electronic structure of molecular systems. Specifically inter-molecular interactions and the possibility of coupled electronic states depending on geometry shall be explored. The computational study is based on density functional theory (DFT) and might include development of the state of the art DFT-package GPAW. The project is in close collaboration to experimental and other theoretical groups within the IRTG.

We are looking for excellent MSc graduates with a strong background in theoretical and computational physics, in particular condensed matter physics. Experience in the development and implementation of numerical methods is advantageous.

The PhD program, a collaboration with the University of British Columbia (UBC), Canada, offers dual supervision by researchers from both universities and an extended stay at the UBC in Vancouver. No tuition fees. The salary will be determined in accordance with TV-L E13 (75%).

Documents should be sent to [email protected] as a single pdf-file including a letter of motivation, a CV, a list of publications (if available), certificates of the university degree (with grades) and transcripts of record, master/diploma certificate (with grades) and the contact details of at least two referees. Applications should be submitted until November 15, 2018.

For further information, please contact PD Dr. Michael Walter: [email protected]
