Kansas State University Experimental AMO Physics
The J.R. Macdonald Laboratory, Department of Physics, Kansas State
University, is seeking two or more RESEARCH ASSOCIATES in the areas of
(i) intense-field short-pulse physics and (ii) coherent control of
ultra-cold atoms. Candidates must have earned a Ph.D. degree in Physics
or related field. Preference will be given to candidates with experience
in one or more of these areas: femtosecond laser systems;
ultrafast/intense laser interactions with atoms/molecules; and cw lasers
for laser cooling, electromagnetically induced transparency, etc.
Research in these areas in the Department of Physics includes high
harmonic and attosecond pulse generation and atomic/molecular physics
carried out using these pulses; and the control of coherent excitation
and cold collision processes (see
http://jrm.phys.ksu.edu/ ). The
initial appointment will be for a one year term with a second and
possible third year term appointment contingent upon performance and
availability of funding. Candidates should submit a letter of
application and a vita including a list of publications to:
Director, J. R. Macdonald LaboratoryCandidates should also arrange to have three letters of reference sent to the same address. Electronic applications can be sent to jrmpostdoc@phys.ksu.edu. Screening of applications will begin July 15, 2008. Kansas State University is an affirmative action equal opportunity employer and actively seeks diversity among its employees.

Theoretical Atomic, Molecular & Optical Physics Kansas State University
Applications are invited for a postdoctoral research associate position
in theoretical atomic, optical, and surface
physics A preferred starting date is between March and June 2008.
The selected candidate must hold a Ph.D. in Physics and is expected to
vigorously participate in ongoing and emerging research projects,
including interactions of atoms, ions, and intense, ultra-fast laser
pulses with surfaces, clusters, and nano structures, using
state-of-the-art methods in computational quantum dynamics. Applicants
should have a strong background in theoretical atomic or surface physics
and in large-scale computing.
The KSU Physics Department and
associated J.R. Macdonald Laboratory have a strong AMO
physics program that targets new and exciting frontiers in ion- and
laser-interactions with matter and was recently ranked as one of the top
14 in the US.
Send your letter of application, curriculum vitae, a list of
publications, and arrange for three letters of recommendation to be sent
to:
