Postdoctoral Research Associate

Western Washington University

Description

Postdoctoral Research Associate

Apply now Work type: NTT Faculty Location: Bellingham, WA Categories: College of Science & Engineering

Position Title Postdoctoral Research Associate

The position is for a postdoctoral research associate in theoretical and computational quantum science to begin in Fall 2021. The postdoc will assist the PI (Armin Rahmani) with analytical studies and numerical simulations of the optimally controlled quantum dynamics. They will also work on writing manuscripts to disseminate the results. The areas of interest are patterns in the optimal dynamical protocols, the evolution of entanglement and correlations in driven quantum systems, noisy and stochastic quantum dynamics, simulation of strongly correlated systems on quantum hardware, and optimal control in topological quantum computing. The research will utilize numerical optimization, optimal control theory, theoretical methods for strongly correlated systems, and the density-matrix renormalization group. The position is for a two-year appointment.

Duties will include:

Perform numerical simulations of nonequilibrium quantum dynamics

Perform numerical and analytical investigations of optimal protocols in nonequilibrium quantum systems

Contribute to writing manuscripts to disseminate the results

Required Qualifications

Ph. D. in theoretical or computational physics or closely related fields.

Research experience in the general area of theoretical quantum science broadly defined (e.g., quantum information or computation or quantum condensed matter physics)

Excellent numerical and computational skills.

Familiarity with nonequilibrium quantum dynamics.

Significant record of peer-reviewed publications.

Strong communication skills.

Preferred Qualifications

Demonstrated commitment to cultivating equitable and inclusive learning and working environments for students, faculty and staff.

Extensive experience with nonequilibrium quantum dynamics.

Familiarity with the physics of strongly correlated quantum systems.

Familiarity with topological quantum computing and Majorana fermions.

Salary

Commensurate with experience and qualifications
