Job Description:
Postdoc Position in Open Quantum Systems Theory for Spin Systems at Trinity College Dublin
The postdoc will join the group of Prof. Alessandro Lunghi at the School of Physics, Trinity College Dublin. The appointee will actively contribute to scientific discussions, create a supportive work environment, and be responsible for developing a comprehensive theory of spin coherence in molecular materials. This involves designing novel software integrating ab initio methods and open quantum systems theory, collaborating with experimental collaborators, and publishing papers in high-impact journals. Strong interest and experience in scientific dissemination and outreach are also valued.
How to Apply: All correspondence, including informal inquiries and formal applications, should be addressed to Prof. Alessandro Lunghi (lungltia@tc41e). Applications must include:
- A cover letter detailing how you meet the selection criteria for the post.
- A complete academic CV, including a full list of scientific output.
- Email contacts of at least two referees who have agreed to provide a reference letter.
Last Date for Apply: Review of applications will start on January 1, 2024, and will remain open until a suitable candidate is identified. The first round of interviews is expected to be held no later than mid-January 2024 and will be conducted remotely. The position is available immediately.
