Postdoctoral Fellowship Openings at the US Army Research Lab Eligible candidates must be US citizens. The Theoretical Chemistry/Propulsion Chemistry Team at the US Army Research Laboratory (ARL) has immediate postdoctoral openings in solid state theoretical physics/theoretical chemistry in several application areas of materials research. These include (in order of preference) modeling (1) surface and interfacial properties of metals and bimetals, particularly catalysis (emphasizing molecular dynamics) of organic reactions on metal surfaces using both planewave and atomic orbital based quantum mechanical methods, and (2) bulk properties for solid state materials with particular emphasis on ceramics utilizing quantum mechanical and classical mechanical methods. The postdoctoral program at ARL is coordinated through the National Research Council (NRC), with our current stipend set at $59K/yr. Some additional funds are provided for relocation, and travel to scientific conferences during the fellowship. Extensive computer resources are available through the ARL Major Shared Resource (High Performance Computing) Center (MSRC), as well as at other DOD MSRCs and computational resources within our group. Our research efforts are closely aligned with experimental work conducted by Materials Research Scientists at the ARL. For more information contact: Dr. Cary F.
