Field of Interest:gr-qc, hep-th
Deadline: 2017-08-21
Region: Europe
Job description:
Quantum Gravity group at the Faculty of Physics, University of Warsaw is inviting applications for two postdoc positions in area of Loop Quantum Gravity/Cosmology (LQG/LQC) within the project “Observable Physics from Quantum Spacetime”. The successful candidates will be employed as full-time researchers. The expected length of appointment for both positions is up to 6 months, with possibility of extension for another period of 6 months after verification of performance and subject to availability of funding. The appointed researchers are expected to conduct research focused on probing the dynamics of quantum spacetime within the framework of LQG/LQC including studies of black hole neighborhoods (in particular their perturbative analysis) and process of quantum gravitational collapse as well as analysis of cosmological solutions within LQC on both perturbative and nonperturbative level.
The candidate should provide the following documents sent via e-mail to tpawlow@fuw.edu.pl:
The deadline for sending the applications is 21.08.2017. The entire procedure will be concluded before 19.09.2017. The candidate might be asked for an interview with the commission appointed by the Dean of the Faculty.
This announcement is the first step in the procedure of employing an academic teacher and its positive result will be a base for consecutive steps.
