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.

Postdoctoral position in theoretical quantum materials

Deadline:  2024-02-24

Contact:   [email protected], [email protected]

Location:  University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee, Wisconsin, USA

 

The theoretical condensed matter physics group at University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee (UWM) invites applications for a postdoctoral research position, to work with the research groups of Prof. Daniel Agterberg and Prof. Michael Weinert. The initial appointment is for one year, with renewal for a second-year contingent on satisfactory performance. Applicants should have a PhD in physics or a related field. The theoretical condensed matter group at UWM has active research efforts in condensed matter theory, with expertise in correlations and topology in quantum materials, first-principles electronic structure calculations, superconductivity, and strongly correlated electronic systems. The core group is comprised of 2 faculty (Daniel Agterberg, Michael Weinert), 1 scientist (Tatsuya Shishidou), 1 postdoc (Yue Yu), and 3 graduate students.  Our group also collaborates closely with the experimental group of Prof. Lian Li at West Virginia University.

We are recruiting one postdoctoral research associate in quantum materials with an emphasis on superconductivity and magnetism (including multipolar magnetism and altermagnetism). Applicants with backgrounds in quantum materials, density functional theory, quantum geometry, topological band theory, and strongly correlated electron systems are encouraged to apply. The position includes a competitive salary and excellent fringe benefits.

Applicants should send a C.V., publication list, and a brief statement of their research interests by email to [email protected] and [email protected].

Applicants should also arrange to have two letters of recommendation sent by e-mail to the above address. Review of applications will begin on February 24, 2024. Questions should also be sent to the above address.

The University of Wisconsin – Milwaukee is an Equal Opportunity, Affirmative Action Employer.
