Online VASP workshop: Electronic correlation from first principles

November 15 - 18, 2022

Schedule: 4.00 pm – 9.00 pm CET (lectures and hands-on sessions)
Venue: Online (Zoom)

In 4 days of lectures and hands-on sessions, this workshop covers exchange-correlation density functionals, hybrid functionals, optical properties within linear-response theory, and methods based on many-body perturbation theory. The latter includes total-energy calculations within the random-phase approximation, electronic structure calculations in the GW approximation and using the Bethe-Salpeter equations. During the hands-on sessions, you will learn to perform your own ab-initio simulations using the Vienna Ab-initio Simulation Package (VASP). Additionally, you have the extraordinary opportunity to meet the team developing VASP to learn from them how to simulate the properties of materials.

Registration fee: 250€
Capacity: 100 (At least 15% will be free of charge.)
Deadline: September 19, 2022

Note: The lectures are live, and a recording will be available for participants afterward. For hands-on sessions, active participation is required!
