Part-Time Research Fellow (Condensed Matter Theory) Part-time

Research Fellow

The overall mission is to understand the emergence of novel topological properties of magnons in and magnetoresistance in chiral metallic magnets as proposed in the Tier 3 grant. This is aligned with the New Knowledge mission of the University.

Construct microscopic models of low lying excitations in quantum magnets, study their properties using analytical and numerical methods, predict experimental signatures of topological magnon bands in chiral metallic magnets.

Key Responsibilities

• Responsible for achieving theory targets in the Tier 2 proposal
• Formulate microscopic models of chiral metallic magnets, devise numerical methods of simulation
• The RF will be responsible for meeting the targets detailed in the Tier 2 proposal.

Competencies and Requirements

• Ph.D. in Physics or related field, extensive knowledge of quantum magnetism and numerical and analytical methods
• Candidate will develop algorithms to simulate low energy excitations in quantum spin systems
• Candidate will construct new observables to characterize excitations above complex ground state phases, including topological magnon bands.
• Experience with computational simulation is required
• Knowledge of quantum many body systems is required.
