📝 Description du poste : PhD Research Fellow in Noncommutative Quantum ModelsThe Faculty of Technology, Natural Sciences and Maritime Sciences have a vacancy for a position asAbout the positionThe Faculty of Technology, Natural Sciences and Maritime Sciences has a vacancy for a temporary 100 % position as PhD Research Fellow in Noncommutative Quantum Models from 01.10.2025.The position is located at the Department of Microsystems and reports to the Head of Department. The place of employment is Campus Vestfold.The employment period will be three years of full time with no teaching obligations, and there is a premise for employment that the PhD Research Fellow is enrolled in USN’s PhD-program in Technology within three months of accession in the position.About the PhD-projectQuantum theory is currently bringing a revolution to technology by introducing new concepts and advancements. However, many fundamental questions remain unanswered. A new frontier for testing quantum effects in the intersection of quantum theory with gravity at low energy scales is now in focus.This project focuses on investigating the implications of quantum and gravitational effects in various models by extending the formalism of quantum theory. By studying novel quantum phase space models (which include non-canonical commutation relations) the project aims to investigate impacts on the thermodynamical properties of microscopic systems and materials’ structure as well as to gain insight into potential new effects and physical behaviour across various physical systems (including crystals and materials, e.g. piezoelectrics).The project will combine mathematical and theoretical framework from noncommutative geometry (quantum space-times), quantum physics, statistical physics, thermodynamics and material science. The main supervisor of the PhD-project will be Associate Professor Anna Pachol.QualificationsApplicants to the PhD position must have a Master’s degree (120 ECTS) equivalent higher education qualifications in Physics (with background in theoretical physics, mathematical physics, or related disciplines). Any previous experience with noncommutative geometry and quantum theory will be considered as an advantage, but strong candidates from other fields including material science or condensed matter physics, are encouraged to apply as well.The degree must be accomplished before application deadline. However, students in the process of finalizing their degree before the scheduled commencement of the position may also apply and can be offered a position conditioned on a satisfactory result.The candidate must have the ability to work independently and at the same time have the motivation to share knowledge and take part in team work.
