The projects include (1) density functional theory of orbital magnetism in transition metal, lanthanide, and actinide elements and compounds (further development of the theory and related implementation/calculations); (2) electronic structure calculations for heterosystems of dielectric substrates and metallic films (magnetic properties of stressed films in external fields); (3) phenomenological theory and simulations of magnetic shape memory alloys using micromagnetism; (4) electronic and magnetic structure of lanthanide molecules in fullerens (chemical bonding, crystal field, and magnetic ground state). Close contact with related experimental work at IFW Dresden, University of Technology Dresden (http://www.tu-dresden.de), and the Max-Planck Institute for the Chemical Physics of Solids Dresden (http://www.cpfs.mpg.de) is envisaged, as well as collaboration with several groups active in solid state theory and in applied mathematics, in particular at the Max-Planck Institute for Mathematics in Sciences, Leipzig. The applicant should preferably have a strong background in solid state physics, good knowledge of theoretical physics, and experience in the understanding and skillful use of code for numerical simulations. Command of one or several programming languages and Linux is favorable. For PostDocs, we offer a one-year position, extendable to 2 years, at the level BAT IIa-O (annual net income about kEUR 22, depending on age and family status); for PhD students, we offer a two-year position, extendable to 3 years, at the level 50% BAT IIa-O (annual net income about kEUR 14). The Institute for Theoretical Solid State Physics at IFW Dresden employs fourteen scientists, five PhD and Diploma students, and several guest scientists. The Institute has up-to-date and well-managed computer facilities and a lively exchange with a number of other groups inside and outside of Dresden (theoretical and experimental, physics and chemistry). The city of Dresden is situated mid-way between Berlin and Prague, in the picturesque valley of river Elbe. With a population of about 500,000, it is known for an exceptionally rich cultural live, for its beautiful surroundings, and for its baroque silhouette. Interested candidates should send their application together with a curriculum vitae, a list of publications, a statement about current research activities, references and other relevant material to: m.richter-at-ifw-dresden.de -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Prof. Dr. Helmut Eschrig Dr. Manuel Richter Dr. Ulrich Rößler IFW Dresden e.V., P.O.
