摘要:
The Institute for Shock Physics (ISP) at Washington State University (WSU) has immediate openings for postdoctoral research associates in theoretical and computational condensed matter physics. Specifically, the successful candidate will contribute to a research program in “Quantum Theory of Materials” whose objective is to develop a fundamental knowledge and a predictive understanding of the behavior of condensed matter systems under extreme conditions. General areas of interest include, but are not limited to: quantum design of materials, pressure- and/or temperature-induced phase transformations, phase diagrams, extreme chemistry, hot dense matter, electronic structure theory, materials for energy and environment, materials in extreme radiation environments, planetary science, and quantum control of matter away from equilibrium. Moreover, the WSU Quantum Theory of Materials program is synergistic with ongoing experimental programs in static and dynamic compression science being conducted at the ISP.
Only applicants who are currently residing in the U.S. and meet the following minimum qualifications will be considered for the position:
A Ph.D. degree in Physics, Chemistry, or Materials Science.
Strong academic background and demonstrated research experience in theoretical and/or computational condensed matter physics, chemistry, or materials science and engineering, as evidenced by a track record of publications in the peer-reviewed literature.
Demonstrated experience in high-performance scientific computing.
Graduate or post-graduate experience at a U.S. academic institution or national laboratory.
Excellent oral and written communication skills.
The salary structure is both attractive and nationally competitive. Other benefits include health/dental insurance, vacation/sick leave, retirement plans, and access to all University facilities.
