PhD openings in computational physics and nanoscience at Univeristy of Modena and Reggio Emilia.

The PhD school in Physics and Nanoscience of the University of Modena and Reggio Emilia has several openings for graduate students that plan to start a PhD in the fall of 2023.

The school welcomes students with a background in physics, chemistry, engineering or related fields who are interested in using high-performance computing facilities, such as CINECA, to interpret, understand and design physical and chemical processes at the nanoscale.

Applications deadline: July 27th, 2023.

Research topics: quantum sciences and technologies; energy-conversion processes for batteries, photocatalysis, and photovoltaics; physics of low-dimensional and bio systems. Significant efforts are devoted to the development of advanced computational algorithms and methods for condensed-matter and nano-systems using GPUs, machine learning, and quantum computers. Particular emphasis will be given to the study of ground and excited-state phenomena using techniques such as density-functional theory, many-body perturbation theory, and quantum embedding methods.
