Marie Skłodowska Curie PhD position at Queens' University Belfast

Applications are invited for a Marie Skłodowska Curie PhD position to  
work in the area of theoretical and computational modelling of the  
interplay between electron-electron and electron-phonon interactions  
in nanostructures. Closing date: July 21st, 2017.

The studentship is part of a cohort of 20 PhDs students of the  
Marie-Skłodowska-Curie-COFUND Actions recently awarded to Queen's  
University Belfast (QUB).

The project will be co-supervised by Dr Tchavdar Todorov and Dr Myrta  
Grüning from the School of Mathematics and Physics at QUB and will  
explore the combination of many-body theory with a method for  
correlated electron-ion dynamics, developed between QUB and  
collaborators in London. The aim is to produce both a deeper  
understanding and a working procedure for the simultaneous description  
of e-e and e-phonon dynamics in single-particle methods such as the  
Time-dependent Density Functional Theory and Hartree-Fock frameworks.

The project will also involve collaborations with partners at Imperial  
College London, Leiden University (the Netherlands), University  
College Irvine and Hunter College University New York (United States)  
and at the Italian Research Council in Rome.

The applicant should have a university degree in physics, chemistry or  
equivalent (minimum entry 2:1 Honour degree/equivalent).

Who can apply:

No restrictions on nationality. However, the applications should  
follow the mobility criteria determined on Marie Skłodowska Curie  
Actions work programme: the applicants shall not have resided or  
carried out their main activity (work, studies, etc.) in the country  
of their host organization (the UK in this case) for more than 12  
months in the 3 years immediately prior to the reference date.  
Compulsory national service and/or short stays such as holidays are  
not taken into account.

How to apply:

Interested applicants should complete an online application form,  
available from the following website at  
https://dap.qub.ac.uk/portal/user/u_login.php, providing an up-to-date  
CV, a letter of motivation, and the names and contact details of at  
least two academic referees.

Informal enquiries may be directed to Dr Tchavdar Todorov  
(t.todorov en qub.ac.uk).
