Two postdoctoral positions are available in Angelos Michaelides’ ICE research group (http://www.ucl.ac.uk/ice) in the Department of Physics and Astronomy and the Thomas Young Centre at University College London.
The projects are aimed at applying and developing computer simulation approaches to better understand the formation of ice, with a specific focus on establishing what makes a material good or bad at nucleating ice. The projects are part of the “HeteroIce” ERC project and build on recent work in the group (e.g. Science 355, 367 (2017); J. Am. Chem. Soc. 139, 6403 (2017)).
Ice formation is one of the most common phase transitions on Earth. It is relevant to an enormous variety of phenomena such as weathering, cloud formation, airline safety, and energy. The results from this project will help to better understand each of these phenomena.
This position is funded for 1 year in the first instance.
