Subject: Postdoctoral positions in Theory of Cold Molecules with Jeremy Hutson:
     University of Durham, UK

Two postdoctoral positions are available in Jeremy Hutson's research group at 
the University of Durham. The people appointed will work on different aspects 
of the theory of cold and ultracold molecules:

Position 1: Interactions and collisions between coolable molecules such
as NH, NH3 and LiH and laser-cooled atomic species such as Li and Rb.

Position 2: Collisions involving heteronuclear (polar) alkali metal dimers

Both positions are funded by the UK Engineering and Physical Sciences Research 
Council in connection with collaborative research projects that are part of the 
EuroQUAM (European Quantum Matter) programme established by the European 
Science Foundation. Both projects will involve close collaboration with 
experimental and theoretical groups across Europe working on related problems, 
and the post-docs appointed will be expected to take a proactive role in 
developing the collaborations.

Experience in atomic or molecular quantum mechanics (bound states, scattering, 
and/or electronic structure theory) is essential.

The University of Durham is a centre of both experimental and theoretical 
research on cold and ultracold atoms and molecules, with active groups in both 
the Physics and Chemistry Departments. These posts will be associated with the 
recently funded IQ3 institute (Institute for Quantum Control, Quantum Computing 
and Quantum Optics): see
http://massey.dur.ac.uk/iqm . Faculty members with interests in
the area of cold atoms and molecules include Charles Adams, Ifan Hughes,
Simon Cornish, Simon Gardiner, Jeremy Hutson and Eckart Wrede.

Durham is a small historic city in the north-east of England, based
around Palace Green, a UNESCO World Heritage site that includes Durham's
Norman Cathedral and Castle.

Further details of the post are available at the University's vacancies
Web site at https://jobs.dur.ac.uk/default.asp . Look for vacancy numbers 1933 
and 1934.

The two positions have different starting dates (the first from 1 July or 
later, the other from 1 September or soon afterwards). However, it is not 
necessary to fill in both sets of application forms: I will assume that 
applicants are interested in both positions unless they clearly state 
otherwise.

The closing date for applications is 30 May 2007.

Informal enquiries may be made to j.m.hutson en durham.ac.uk .
