Job AvailabilityJune 2010Phys4Entry - Planetary integrated Models: a postdoctoral research associate post is available at UCL Department of Physics and Astronomy Applications are invited for the above position to work with Prof Jonathan Tennyson as part of a newly funded EU project entitled Phys4Entry - Planetary Entry Integrated Models. The post will be involved in performing electron -- molecule collision calculations using the R-matrix method with a particular focus emphasis collisional excitation of molecules that are important in the Martian atmosphere (CO, CN, CO2). Informal enquiries can be made to Professor Jonathan Tennyson, Department of Physics and Astronomy, University College London, Gower St, London WC1E 6BT, (telephone: (+44) 20 7679 7155). Further information and the application procedure may be found here. The closing date for applications is Friday 9 July 2010. May 2009Post-doctoral Research Associate in Computational Molecular Physics, working with Dr Jimena Gorfinkiel, Department of Physics & Astronomy, The Open University: fixed term contract, 18 months, starting on 1 October 2009, deadline for applications: 22 May 2009. Applications are invited for a postdoctoral position in the Dept of Physics & Astronomy at The Open University. This is an outstanding opportunity to be part of a team comprising researchers from The Open University, Queen's University Belfast, University College London and Daresbury Laboratory at the forefront of developing scientific software to best exploit high performance computing hardware and ensure "better HPC software for future science". The aim of this project is to develop a set of high-quality, atomic and molecular HPC codes to address newly-emerging areas like atto-second science and biological radiation damage phenomena. The appointee will undertake the re-engineering of the UK polyatomic R-matrix suite using modern programming constructs, extended Fortran 95 and MPI. The overall curation of the codes will be handled by collaborators at Daresbury Laboratory with whom the PDRA is expected to maintain close contact. The suite will be re-designed to run on Linux workstations as well as massively parallel machines. The PDRA will also be involved in the testing, verification and validation of the suite. Applicants should hold a PhD in Physics, Chemistry, Mathematics or a related area, and must have strong skills in software development using Fortran 95, preferably in a parallel environment. A background in Computational Chemistry or Molecular Physics is preferred. Detailed information and how to apply may be found here. If you wish to discuss this post informally, please contact Dr Jimena Gorfinkiel. June 2007
Research Fellow (Reference: 07/W608B) Required for 18 months with effect from 1 October 2007, to assist in the development, object-oriented re-engineering, and numerical validation of the Fortran code 2DRMP. Developed at Queen's University Belfast this numerical code is intended to enable virtual experiments to be performed on electron collisions with hydrogen and quasi one-electron atoms and ions using high performance computers. Applicants must hold an honours degree or equivalent in computer science, mathematics or a related discipline and have a PhD involving research in computer science or a related computational science discipline. It is also essential that applicants have at least 3 years research experience in the development of numerical codes within a high performance computing environment; experience in the development and analysis of the 2DRMP code; experience in the use of Fortran, MPI and ScaLAPACK within a Unix environment and demonstrable familiarity with the concepts of object-oriented programming. Additional criteria will be available in the further particulars of the post. Informal enquiries regarding this post may be directed to Dr Carol Phillips, Tel: 028 90974672 or e-mail: cx.phillips@qub.ac.ukCommencing salary: £26,666 - £27,465 per annum,

Applications are invited for a post-doctoral research fellow, funded by the EPSRC, for up to 3 years to develop and apply a new parallel computational code based on time-dependent R-matrix theory for the accurate calculation of the response of multi-electron atoms exposed to ultra-fast high-intensity laser pulses. Applicants must have at least a 2.1 Honours degree (or equivalent) in Applied Mathematics or Physics or a closely related area, and have a PhD or be about to submit for a PhD in Physics or a closely related area. Applicants must have a minimum of 3 years of research experience by 1 October 2006, substantiated by a good publication record, commensurate with experience. They must also have good computational skills, including the application of codes, and, commensurate with experience, substantial development of new or existing codes. Salary: £25,633-£33,445 per annum. The closing date for applications is Friday 11 August 2006, 4.00 pm. It is anticipated interviews will be held late August or early Septembet, with the exact date to be announced later. Guidelines for applications will be given on the QUB website (see above). It is greatly appreciated if applicants take note of these guidelines in view of Equal Opportunity legislation. May 2006A three year PhD studentship is available from September 2006 to work in a new group led by Dr Jimena Gorfinkiel at the Open University. The project will use one of the most successful and up to date electron scattering programs to study electron interactions with molecules and small molecular clusters. The project is part of a large European collaboration so there will be opportunities for visiting other groups in Europe and the UK. The applicant should have a good first degree in Physics or Chemistry and be an EU National. For further information on the project, the host department and its
research, go to:
