Offer Description
The Levitated Nanophysics Group in the Department of Physics is looking to recruit a post-doctoral research assistant to join their diverse and dynamic team. The successful candidate will join a group at the heart of the global levitated nanoparticle research community, and a key player in the UK’s Quantum Technologies landscape. See www.levi-nano.com for more details.
The Department of Physics at King’s College London is diverse, international, and friendly with a positive atmosphere of collaboration and support between research groups. We offer a welcoming environment and welcome applications from applicants of all backgrounds.
The successful candidate will work closely with Dr. James Millen on the theory and simulation of thermodynamic processes at the microscale, supporting a parallel experimental effort in the application of levitated microparticles for analogue simulation. The candidate will have the opportunity to shape the research agenda of the project, explore their own ideas, and work with a wide pool of collaborators from the physical, mathematical and biological sciences.
The successful candidate will mentor PhD and Masters students, have the opportunity to run summer projects, forge new collaborations and attend international conferences. Our group not only has an innovative research portfolio and vision, but undertakes an exciting programme of public engagement activities.
A successful candidate may have skills from a wide range of backgrounds, including (but not limited to) stochastic thermodynamics, statistical physics, computational physics, and particle levitation, but the critical requirements are a proven ability to learn fast, to think creatively and to work in a team.
Within King’s, you will be part of the department of Physics, which belongs to the Faculty of Natural, Mathematical & Engineering Sciences (NMES). Supporting our staff is important to us and we offer a range of provision including flexible working, caring support, and training opportunities. The university is making significant investment in the Faculty and both student and staff numbers are growing. Our staff come from over 45 countries and around 56% of our students are from outside the UK.
