Thursday, October 12, 2023

Candidates are invited to apply for a postdoctoral Research Associate role in the group of Dr Evgeny Kozik at King’s College London to work on development of diagrammatic Monte Carlo techniques for understanding and controlling mechanisms of unconventional superconductivity. 

Applicants are expected to have a PhD (or be awaiting its award) in the area of Theoretical/Computational Physics and a strong expertise in precision numerical methods for correlated electrons, their implementation and application. Experience with diagrammatic Monte Carlo approaches and studies of superconductivity or closely related problems is desired. The successful applicant will be part of a collaboration with the experiment group led by Dr Clifford Hicks (Birmingham) and the theory group of Prof Joseph Betouras (Loughborough).

This post will be offered on a fixed term contract for one year in the first instance, with a start date from 1st October 2023 and potential for extension for up to additional three years (up to 4 years in total).
