Summary

About the Role

For informal enquiries, please contact Amos Chan (Assistant Professor) at amos.chan@warwick.ac.uk

We will consider applications for employment on a part-time or other flexible working basis, even where a position is advertised as full-time, unless there are operational or other objective reasons why it is not possible to do so.

The research group of Dr Amos Chan at the University of Warwick is seeking to appoint two Research Fellows to commence as soon as possible. This is an excellent opportunity to join the Theory Group within the Department of Physics at the University of Warwick.

A fundamental question in theoretical physics is how quantum information becomes scrambled in strongly interacting quantum many-body systems and what universal signatures characterise this process. Our group's research programme aims to advance the understanding of many-body quantum dynamics, with a particular focus on symmetry, by studying information spreading, entanglement dynamics, and signatures of quantum chaos in eigenvalue and eigenstate correlations. The research programme lies at the intersection of quantum many-body physics, quantum information science, and high energy physics, and addresses questions that can be probed with near-term quantum simulators and processors.

About You

We are looking for applicants interested in quantum many-body physics, quantum many-body chaos, non-equilibrium quantum dynamics, quantum simulations, and open quantum many-body systems. You will be expected to have a strong background in theoretical and computational physics.

For further information regarding the skills required for this role please see the personal specification section of the attached job description.

If you are near submission or have recently submitted your PhD but have not yet had it conferred, any offers of employment will be made as Research Assistant at the top of level 5 of the University grade structure. Upon receipt of evidence of the successful award of your PhD, you will be promoted to Research Fellow on the first point of level 6 of the University grade structure.
