Faculty of Mathematics and Physical Sciences
School of
Postdoctoral Research Fellow in Theoretical
Chemistry
Applications are invited
for a 3-year postdoctoral position in theoretical chemistry at the
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
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.)
