Computational modelling for UK national research programme into magnetic skyrmions (2021)¶

Please see this summary from 2019 as a general introduction of the research challenge and the research programme.

Here is some additional information:

The end of the project is now 19 July 2023, and the advertised position will also end on that day. The contract length is thus of the order of 16 months (depending on start date).
To make this efficient, we need good communication skills from the successful applicant, and ability and willingness to integrate into an existing and distributed team.
Likely topics of work include (i) collaborative maintenance and further developement of the Ubermag software package and associated data analysis tools. And (ii) collaborative application of those tools to support ongoing theoretical and experimental on magnetism and magnetic skyrmions within the project, working towards publication of physics results.
Physicists with topical knowledge and magnetism and skyrmions and a strong interest in computational science are similarly encouraged to apply as are experienced research software engineers who are willing to engage with computational magnetism at the nanoscale.
Please do not hesitate to get in touch before the application deadline if you have further questions regarding the project and its implementation.

How to apply¶

Application deadline: 15 August 2021
