I have made the decision to migrate my activity across to @bluesky. I am sure this doesn't need much explaining...
Find me at: @chriswoodgate.bsky.social
I will maintain this account and historic posts, but activity will be markedly reduced.
See you where the sky is bluer! ☀️
This was a really cool (hot?) project of which to be a part: doi.org/10.1016/j.jallcom.20…
An important take-home for me: think _carefully_ about your choice of electronic temperature when seeking to compare theory with experiment, especially when laser ablation is involved... 💥
Really pleased to share that I recently started a new position as a @1851RoyalCom Research Fellow in the Yusuf Hamied Department of Chemistry at @Cambridge_Uni. Here, I'll be working with the Csányi group on machine-learned interatomic potentials for magnetic materials 🧲
A really important article here, showing how early career researchers (ECRs) report elevated levels of psychological distress compared to age-matched samples of the general population: nature.com/articles/s41562-0…
As communities, we can – and should – do more to support our ECRs.
Pleased to be able to share another #research publication, this time examining the computational efficiency of various proposed parallelisation schemes for the Wang–Landau sampling scheme, useful for studying phase transitions. 📝

My latest #publication examines why Ni diffuses so sluggishly in Fe-Ni #alloys, with local lattice distortions—and associated magnetism—playing a key role. 🧲
You can find out more about this #research in Physical Review Materials: doi.org/10.1103/4q1c-97bp
Check out my latest #research #article, published today in Acta Materialia! 🚀

We present a combined #experimental and #computational investigation into how an applied #magnetic field can affect #spinodal #decomposition in Cu-Ni-Fe #alloys. Enjoy! 🧲
Really pleased to be able to share my latest research article, published today in the Journal of Open Source Software (JOSS)

BraWl is a lightweight package for doing alloy #thermodynamics using the Bragg-Williams model 🚀
Thrilled to share my latest #research #article, published today by @IOPPublishing in Journal of Physics: Materials
iopscience.iop.org/article/1…
We model the #thermodynamics, #phase #stability, and #properties of two #refractory #HighEntropy #superalloys. Check it out!

Meet next week's conference speakers! Christopher Woodgate @BristolUni will be speaking on Modelling Multicomponent Alloys across Length Scales tinyurl.com/3bd9b2x4 #CoSeC #computationalmaterials #theoreticalphysics
Really pleased to be able to share this research article, published today in npj Computational Materials: doi.org/10.1038/s41524-024-0…
Here, we examine how alloying additions may be used to control chemical ordering tendencies and magnetic properties in FeNi-based magnets! 🧲

Delighted to have been named as part of the 2024 cohort of CoSeC fellows!
Really looking forward to using this career development fellowship to act as an ambassador for the Centre, and to build bridges between the UK’s computational communities! 🚀
@SciComp_STFC @BristolUniPhys
We are extremely excited to introduce the 2024 cohort of CoSeC Fellows... @CDWoodgate is an @EPSRC Doctoral Prize Fellow at @BristolUni. Chris is a theoretical physicist and computational materials scientist with a research focus on computational modelling of electronic structure
Today is my first day as an EPSRC Doctoral Prize Fellow in the School of Physics at the University of Bristol!
I am really looking forward to connecting with a range of theoretical, computational, and experimental collaborators at Bristol and beyond!
@BristolUni @BristolUniPhys
It was great to attend the 2024 @CCP5UK conference and AGM this week, hosted by @sheffielduni
My talk on concentration waves in #HighEntropyAlloys was well received, and there were lots of great talks from other researchers at all career stages!
Delighted to share that my book has just been published by @SpringerNature!
It has been a real pleasure working with @zacharyevenson and the rest of the team at Springer on this project! 🚀

PhDone! ✅
It’s been a while since my viva, and even longer since I submitted my thesis, but today was the day of my #PhD graduation ceremony! 👨🎓
It was great to attend the celebrations with my family, and to catch up with friends from my time as a student at @warwickuni
Had a great week attending (and presenting at) the International Conference on Magnetism 2024 in Bologna, Italy. 🇮🇹
Some great discussions throughout the week!

Great to be at the International Conference on Magnetism @ICM2024 in Bologna this week! 🧲
At 11:30 today, I will be giving a talk presenting some of our recent work on the FeNi system, which is a candidate rate-earth-free permanent magnet. See you there!
#Magnetism
Busy day today presenting at two conferences across two locations!
This morning, I presented an invited talk at PEMD 2024 in Nottingham, organised by @TheIET. Then, this afternoon, I gave a poster presentation at the @TheoryIOP annual meeting.
Great discussions at both events!
