RESEARCH FIELD: Atomic, molecular and optical (AMO) physics. Computational quantum chemistry.

SHORT DESCRIPTION:
Postdoc position starting December 2013 in computational AMO physics / quantum chemistry (time-dependent many-electron theory, strong fields and attoscience) at Department of Physics and Astronomy, Aarhus University, Denmark.

LONG DESCRIPTION:
A postdoc position starting December 2013 of one year’s duration with possible prolongation is hereby announced at the Department of Physics and Astronomy, Aarhus University. The position is funded by anERC project on time-dependent many-electron theory led by principal investigator Lars Bojer Madsen. 
The current opening is within the topic of computational physics/computational quantum chemistry. The successful candidate will be involved in the formulation and implementation of time-dependent many-electron theory that treat the electron-electron interaction beyond the mean field. Particular attention will be devoted to the description of the electronic continuum. Experience with implementation and method developing in computational many-electron methods, e.g., multi-configurational Hartree-Fock, CI, or coupled-cluster methods is expected.
The theory and numerical codes developed will be applied to timely problems in strong-field and attoscience.
More information about the current activities of the principal investigator can be found at the home pageshttp://www.phys.au.dk/bojer
