A postdoc position is available in the Multiscale and Quantum Computing Group
coordinated by Prof. Sauro Succi at the Italian Institute of Technology
and CLN2S Sapienza, Rome.

The rapid development of quantum computers defines the urgency to
develop quantum algorithms for challenging problems. This project
focuses on developing a quantum computing algorithm for the simulation
of fluid flows and testing them on quantum computers.

The group has extensive experience in computational physics, with
special emphasis on complex states of flowing matter, including soft
flowing matter, relativistic fluids and lately also quantum computing
models for fluid flows.
