Post-doctoral position in computational chemistry/molecular modeling
We are seeking a post-doctoral fellow to work in the area of classical
molecular dynamics simulations of aqueous hydroxide solutions relevant to
alkaline batteries. The project is a collaborative effort between Grant Smith
(Department of Materials Science and Engineering, University of Utah) and
Richard Jaffe (Computational Chemistry Branch, NASA Ames Research Center).
The responsibilities of the position include quantum chemistry calculations
on molecular clusters, parametrization of classical potential functions,
development of a classical model for hydroxide solutions allowing proton
transfer, and molecular dynamics simulations of alkaline solutions.
The position is based at the University of Utah; however, funds are available
for travel and living expenses allowing the post-doctoral fellow to spend
approximately three to four months at the NASA Ames Research Center. We
expect the position to be available 1 October 1999.
Inquiries should be addressed to
Grant Smith [log in to unmask]
Richard Jaffe [log in to unmask]
