Postdoctoral Position in Experimental Quantum Liquids at Indiana University

The Physics Department at Indiana University Bloomington invites applications for a postdoctoral fellow to support experimental studies of quantum liquids confined to one-dimension. The successful candidate will be expected to contribute significantly to the planning, execution and analysis of neutron scattering studies of confined helium.

This position offers a collaborative opportunity, with the fellow being based primarily at the University of Tennessee, Knoxville. The candidate will conduct neutron scattering studies at the Spallation Neutron Source, located at Oak Ridge National Laboratory, utilizing cutting-edge techniques to explore confined quantum systems. The appointment could begin as early as December 1, 2024, and is initially for one year, with the possibility of renewal for an additional year based on performance.

A Ph.D. in experimental condensed matter physics is required by time of appointment. Experience with neutron scattering and/or numerical simulations is an advantage but not a necessity. Applications, including a CV, a statement of research interests, and three letters of reference, should be submitted through the application portal located at:

Review of applications will begin on November 15, 2024 and will continue until the position is filled. The position is annually renewable assuming satisfactory performance. Questions about the position can be directed to Paul Sokol (pesokol@indiana.edu).

The College of Arts and Sciences is committed to building and supporting a diverse, inclusive, and equitable community of students and scholars.
