Postdoctoral positions in computational condensed matter physics

One or more postdoctoral positions are available at the College of William and Mary in computational condensed matter physics, in the areas of: (1) electronic structure of materials and (2) ultracold atoms. In (1), the focus is on the application and development of quantum Monte Carlo (QMC) methods to study electron correlations in model and realistic systems. In (2), the focus is on simulation studies of strongly interacting ultra-cold atoms, including trapped atomic gases and optical lattice systems. More information about the computational condensed matter physics group can be found here and here.

Candidates with interests and background in either area are encouraged to apply. Experience in computational approaches (e.g., QMC, or mean-field calculations for cold atoms, or density-functional or quantum chemistry methods for electronic structure) is desirable. Candidates should send a CV and arrange to have three letters of recommendation sent to Prof. Shiwei Zhang by email. Consideration of candidates will continue until the positions are filled.

The College of William and Mary (W&M) is located in Williamsburg, Virginia, about 150 miles from Washington D.C. W&M is an EO/AA employer.
