Job announcements relevant to people interested in electronic structure calculations…
Due to the large number of posts recently, there is currently a delay of several weeks between posts being submitted and the corresponding emails being distributed to all users. Please bear with us while we try to improve this. In the meantime – and until this notice is removed – it would assist us considerably if you could submit only important and/or urgent posts and thus help to reduce the size of the mail queue. Under no circumstances should you resend posts multiple times when you find the emails are not distributed immediately.
In light of the Russian military offensive in Ukraine, we request that announcements relating to events, jobs and other activities associated with institutions supported by the Russian and Belarusian states are not posted to the Psi-k forum.
PhD position in Computational Many-Body Physics (No replies)
Back to Job listings...
We invite applications for a PhD position in the field of "Computational Condensed Matter Physics", to be competitively funded via a Vice Chancellors Scholarship of the University of Kent, Canterbury, UK.
The aim of this PhD project is to develop a quantitative model of heavy-fermion materials, using numerical diagrammatic Monte-Carlo methods, and focusing on the understanding of exotic phases such as heavy-fermion Fermi liquids and -superconductors.
This project will offer exposure to both numerical and analytical methods of quantum many-body physics. The candidate will perform tasks including code development, simulation and data analysis, application of analytic models, and comparison to theory predictions, allowing them to develop their understanding of condensed matter physics alongside strong computational and programming skills.
The position is available starting in the academic year 2019/20.
Deadline for applications: 8 February 2019
