Neugebauer) of the Max- Planck-Institut fuer Eisenforschung Duesseldorf, Germany. The positions are in the research group "Theory of Phase Transitions" (Dr. T. Hickel), which is focussed on the development and application of efficient simulation tools based on DFT and thermodynamics/kinetics in order to investigate martensitic phase transitions. The aim of the projects is the theoretical investigation of: -- martensitic phase transitions, magnetic-field induced switching and motion of twin boundaries in novel shape memory alloys (priority program 1239 within the German Research Foundation), -- elastic properties of advanced high strength and supra-ductile steels, stacking faults and the impact of hydrogen. We encourage outstanding and highly motivated candidates interested in fundamental materials research and open for intensive collaborations with industrial research instituts to apply. A strong background in theoretical solid states physics and quantum mechanics is required. The knowledge of electronic structure methods and computational tools including quantum chemistry will be considered as an advantage. Applications are accepted until the position will be filled. The Max- Planck-Institut fuer Eisenforschung is an equal-opportunity employer. Candidates are invited to send their CV, recent publications and contact data of two potential referees to Dr. Tilmann Hickel.
