Research Fellow in Theoretical Atomic/Condensed Matter Physics
Job description
An experienced and highly motivated Research Fellow is sought to join the team of Dr Dermot Green (
d.green@qub.ac.uk
) to deliver the objectives of the European Research Council funded research programme "ANTI-ATOM: Many-body theory of antimatter interactions with atoms, molecules and condensed matter", for which he is Principal Investigator.
The successful
candidate is expected to start from 1 March 2019, or as soon as possible thereafter. The position is for 3 years, but may be extended to the end date of the ERC research programme (Feb 2024) dependent on suitable performance and the direction of the research programme.
The project, which spans theoretical/computational physics, chemistry and materials science, aims to develop state-of-the-art many-body theory to describe the fundamental interactions of positrons and positronium with atoms, molecules and condensed matter. The team will also focus on developing and implementing new generally applicable computational methodologies (especially diagrammatic Monte Carlo) to enable many-body calculations of processes involving structured atomic and molecular systems.
The specific work to be undertaken by the Research Fellow is detailed in the Candidate information statement. Note that the balance of focus on atomic/molecular and condensed matter physics can be decided with the successful candidate based on their strengths and interests.
The successful candidate will join the Antimatter and Many-Body Theory research group, in the Centre for Theoretical Atomic, Molecular and Optical Physics, School of Mathematics and Physics, at Queen's University Belfast. The group consists of two academic staff members Dr Dermot Green and Dr Gleb Gribakin, in addition to postdocs and PhD students. Queen's has a long tradition of internationally leading research in theory and computation of atomic structure and processes, and intensive research efforts developing theory for quantum many-body systems in various contexts.
Please see the candidate statement for more details.
