Postdoctoral Fellow in Condensed Matter Theory

The Department of Physics at the University of Alberta invites applications to fill a postdoctoral position in condensed matter theory, with a starting date of any time up to Sept. 2023. The successful applicant will work in collaboration with Prof. Frank Marsiglio. The position is a full-time 1-year appointment, renewable for 1 more year subject to performance and mutual agreement. The salary for the position is $50,000 CAD per year plus supplemental health benefits. Research topics include superconductivity and strongly correlated electrons. Of particular interest is the interplay between the electron-phonon interaction and Coulomb repulsion, as described through quantum Monte Carlo simulations. The applicant must have a Ph.D. in theoretical condensed matter physics obtained within the last five (5) years, a strong background in quantum many-body physics, and previous research experience in theoretical condensed matter physics (analytical and computational).
