Faculty of Mathematics and Physical Sciences School of Chemistry UNIVERSITY OF LEEDS Postdoctoral Research Fellow in Theoretical Chemistry Applications are invited for a 3-year postdoctoral position in theoretical chemistry at the School of Chemistry, University of Leeds, to work in the new and rapidly developing area of multidimesional quantum mechanics. The goal of the project is to develop and apply new methods of quantum mechanics, which allow treatment of large number of quantum degrees of freedom. For our previous work see for example Chem.Phys. 304, 103 (2004); Chem.Phys. 322, 127 (2006); J.Chem.Phys. 121, 3563, (2004). Applications are planned to simulations of clusters, quantum fluids, spectra of polyatomic molecules and electron dynamics in laser fields. The project will be supervised by Dr Dmitry Shalashilin and will involve collaboration with Professors David Clary and Mark Child from Oxford University. Applicants must have PhD in chemistry physics or related fields. Experience in the area of quantum dynamics and a good taste for analytical and numerical techniques together with programming skills are required. The position is available on 1 April 2007, or as soon as possible thereafter. University Grade 7 (£26,402 - £30,606 p.a.) Informal contact may be addressed to Dr Dmitry Shalashilin (email: [log in to unmask]). Application packs are available from Ms Mandy Clarkson, School of Chemistry, University of Leeds, Leeds LS2 9JT (Tel: 0113 343 6541 email: [log in to unmask]) or from the web http://jobs.leeds.ac.uk/ShowVacancies.aspx?Category=Research Job ref: 313140 Closing date: One month from advert Dr. Dmitry Shalashilin School of Chemistry University of Leeds Leeds LS2 9JT UK Phone: (+44) 0113 3437610 Fax : (+44) 0113 343 6565 e-mail: [log in to unmask] To join or leave the molecular-dynamics-news email list, go to: http://www.jiscmail.ac.uk/lists/molecular-dynamics-news.html
