PostDoc position at the Division of Theoretical Chemistry,
Lund University, Sweden.

Theoretical modelling of the formation of calcium silicate
nanoparticles.

Project Description:
The projct includes both quantum chemical and statistical
mechanical modelling of calcium silicate nanoparticles,
their surfaces and interfaces with water. The project
has focus at the stability and the growth of silicate-based
particles and understanding of the process of the setting
mechanisms of cement.

The project includes both development of the code (for combined
quantum chemistry and statistical mechanical simulations), and
applying existent software for the research.

Qualification:
PhD in the field of theoretical chemistry, or similar fields.
Strong background in quantum chemistry and statistical mechanics.
Experience with quantum chemical and statistical mechanical 
packages. Programming skills (Fortran and/or C) and code 
development in UNIX/Linux environment is essential.
Knowledge and experience in simulation of solid states, and their 
surfaces is an advantage.

The position is open for one year, with possible prolongation 
for the second year.
