Théorique, numérique
The internship offers the possibility to study materials at high pressures and temperatures as found in ice giant planets such as Uranus, Neptune and their exoplanetary analogues. You will learn the foundations of the atomistic simulation technique we apply in our research – density functional theory molecular dynamics. We will compute thermodynamic, structural, and transport properties of hydrogen sulfide using high-performance computing clusters. At the same time, you will gain some insights on planetary modeling and high-pressure experiments (e.g. at LULI 2000).
