Sigue leyendo Open postdoctoral position in Theoretical and Computational Chemistry, University of Oxford, UK

We are looking for a postdoctoral researcher.Join us to develop sophisticated theoretical and computational methods for novel ultrafast measurements. The project involves accurate calculations of partial scattering cross-sections using R-matrix methodology, excited state electronic structure theory, and quantum molecular dynamics simulations. The goal is to make it possible to interpret innovative photoelectron imaging experiments that exploit single and multiphoton probes to map chemical dynamics in unprecedented detail.The project is a collaboration with Zdeněk Mašín (Prague) and Russell Minns (Southampton).This is an exciting opportunity for an ambitious and talented theoretician to advance theoretical capabilities and fundamental knowledge about molecular systems in a project that has immediate impact on cutting-edge measurements. The post is available ASAP, with an initial contract for 12 months and extension for a second year upon mutual agreement.The successful candidate will have a PhD in theoretical chemistry or physics, a robust computational background and proven experience in electronic structure theory. Applicants must show ability to work efficiently in a team and have good communication skills.Oxford provides a vibrant and intellectually stimulating environment near the charming Cotswolds countryside and the rich cultural offerings of London. Interested candidates are encouraged to contact Adam Kirrander (adam.kirrander@chem.ox.ac.uk ) for further details.deadline 23 Oct #J-18808-Ljbffr
