POSTDOCTORAL POSITION IN TOULOUSE
position expired
University Paul Sabatier and CNRS, Toulouse
A postdoctoral position opens in autumn 2015
at the Quantware group of the Laboratory
for Theoretical Physics, CNRS and University Paul Sabatier, Toulouse, France
(website http://www.quantware.ups-tlse.fr/).
This position is funded by the LABEX NEXT
in the framework of the
grant TRAFIC (quantum TRAnsport Fluctuations wIth Cold atoms)
attributed to a team composed
of the permanent researchers
Gabriel Lemarié and Bertrand Georgeot (theory)
(webpages http://www.lpt.ups-tlse.fr/spip.php?article65&lang=en and http://www.lpt.ups-tlse.fr/spip.php?article28)
and David Guéry-Odelin and Juliette Billy (experiments)
(webpage http://www.coldatomsintoulouse.com).
The research project is centered on theoretical studies of quantum transport with cold atoms
in disordered or chaotic systems in connection with experiments realized in the
cold atom group of David Guéry-Odelin and Juliette Billy.
The candidate should have a good knowledge of quantum
mechanics, theoretical physics and computer
simulations. Expertise in mesoscopic physics, cold atoms or quantum chaos
would be a plus. Citizenship does not matter.
The Quantware group is part of the Laboratory
for Theoretical Physics at CNRS and University Paul Sabatier. The
Laboratory is also internationally recognized in the fields
of mesoscopic physics, many-body interaction systems, high Tc
superconductivity, quantum and classical chaos,
statistical physics.
The position is available for 12 months.
There is a possibility of applying for two additional years
on another funding source.
In addition to the salary,
health insurance, retirement and unemployment benefits,
plus support for travels are provided. The successful candidate
is expected to take the position by autumn 2015, but the precise

motivation letter,
and arrange for two or more letters of recommendation
to be sent before SEPTEMBER 30, 2015
(all preferably via e-mail) to:
