Postdoctoral Research Associate (Fixed term until 31 August 2012)
Mathematical Quantum Control
Institute of Mathematics and Physics
Grade 7: £30,594 - £35,469
Applications are invited for a postdoctoral research associate position at Aberystwyth University. The successful candidate will work on an EPSRC funded project on theoretic methods applied to quantum control, and will work with the Quantum Open Systems and Control research group at Aberystwyth.
The applicant should hold a PhD in Mathematics (or a related subject) at the start of the appointment, and should be able to demonstrate a strong research record (or the potential to develop a strong record for early career applicants). Ideally we are looking for a postdoctoral researcher with a background in operator theory, or quantum stochastic processes and quantum control.
The post is funded by an EPSRC grant to Aberystwyth University, and the successful candidate will be expected to contribute to the activities related to this grant.
