University of Cambridge

Research Associate

Condensed Matter Theory

University of Cambridge – Department of Physics

Salary: 27,183-35,469 pa

Limit of tenure: 30 September 2012

Applications are invited for an EPSRC funded post doctoral research position in condensed matter theory, starting October 2010.  This post is to work with Professor Nigel Cooper. The project will involve theoretical investigations of strongly correlated quantum systems, in part motivated by ultra-cold atomic gases.  The candidate should have strong background in the theory of quantum  many-particle systems and a knowledge of quantum field theory. The TCM group provides an environment to pursue collaborative and/or independent research.  Further information on the research activities of the group are available from http://www.tcm.phy.cam.ac.uk.

Applications together with a curriculum vitae, two letters of recommendation and a PD18 cover sheet (parts I and III only), obtainable from http://www.admin.cam.ac.uk/offices/personnel/forms/ should be sent to Mrs Tracey Ingham, The Cavendish Laboratory, JJ Thomson Avenue, Cambridge, CB3 0HE, or by email: ti201@cam.ac.uk.

    Einstein was right about the shortcomings of Quantum Mechanics and so therefore String Theory is also the incorrect approach. As an alternative to Quantum Theory there is a new theory that describes and explains the mysteries of physical reality. While not disrespecting the value of Quantum Mechanics as a tool to explain the role of quanta in our universe. This theory states that there is also a classical explanation for the paradoxes such as EPR and the Wave-Particle Duality. The Theory is called the Theory of Super Relativity. This theory is a philosophical attempt to reconnect the physical universe to realism and deterministic concepts. It explains the mysterious.
