Position Description

POSITION DESCRIPTION:

Applications are invited for a postdoctoral position in the group of Adam Nahum at the Ecole Normale Superieure, Paris (Laboratoire de Physique de l'Ecole Normale Superieure), to start in September/October 2025 (precise start date flexible).

The appointment is for 2+1 years and comes with travel support. It is funded by the ERC grant "Statistical Mechanics of Quantum Measurement and Quantum Entanglement", which addresses broad theoretical questions about quantum dynamics and related quantum and classical phase transitions. The successful applicant will join an extremely lively theoretical physics community in the Ecole Normale Superieure and in the Paris area.

Strong candidates are sought with (most likely) a background in theoretical quantum condensed matter / quantum dynamics / statistical mechanics of phase transitions.

FORMALITIES:

Required application documents:

- Cover letter

- Detailed CV with publication list

- Research statement (max 4 pages)

- Three reference letters

Candidates should submit these materials via the AcademicJobsOnline website. 

Review of applications will start in late December, but applications will be accepted until the position is filled.

Submit the following items online at this website to complete your application:
  • Cover letter
  • Research statement
  • CV including publication list
  • Three reference letters (to be submitted online by the reference writers on this site help popup)
And anything else requested in the position description.
