New paper in Phys Rev B

A new paper by Kelly Nicholson from our group has just appeared in Phys. Rev. B:

"Computationally efficient determination of hydrogen isotope effects on the thermodynamic stability of metal hydrides"
URL: http://link.aps.org/doi/10.1103/PhysRevB.86.134113
DOI: 10.1103/PhysRevB.86.134113

Congratulations Kelly on your nice work. 

Two collaborative postdoc positions available

Our close collaborator Prof. Sankar Nair has two open postdoctoral positions that will involve experimental work on projects where theoretical work is being done in our group. Information about these positions is available here: http://nair.chbe.gatech.edu/DownloadDocs/GeorgiaTech_PostdoctoralPositions_Oct2012.pdf
Questions or applications for these positions should be directed to Prof. Nair.
