Postdoc position at LKB (Paris)
A postdoctoral position in theoretical physics opens in the « Quantum theory, Atoms and Fields » group of LKB (campus of Sorbonne Université, Paris). The aim of the postdoc will be to develop a scattering description of Casimir forces between metallic plates, by properly treating the non-specular reflection of virtual photons on the impurities embedded in the metal. The main objective will be to understand how these heterogeneities affect the Casimir force and whether their account can reconcile theory and experiments. The research work will involve theoretical methods such as diagrammatic treatments of disorder scattering, random-matrix theories and Casimir physics, as well as numerical methods. Applicants should contact Serge Reynaud (serge.reynaud at lkb.upmc.fr) and Nicolas Cherroret (nicolas.cherroret at lkb.upmc.fr) with a CV including reference names and a motivation letter.
