Missions

The candidtate, owning a PhD, will be in charge of developing numerical code to model the dynamics of matter waves in atomic interferometers with entangled sources. This person will interact with the experimental team to model as precisely as possible the experimental constraints that need to be satisfied to create spin-squeezed states compatible with atomic interferometers in free-fall configuration using Bose-Einstein condensates.

Activités

- Development of numerical codes modeling the dynamics of matter waves (main task 1.1)
- Interaction with experimental team (main task 1.2)
- Presentation of results: team seminars / laboratory seminars / conferences (subtask 2.1)
- Writing peer-reviewed papers (subtask 2.2)

Compétences

Know-how skills:
- In-depth knowledge of material wave dynamics
- In-depth knowledge of numerical modeling and competence in several computer languages: C/Fortan/Matlab/Python
- Knowledge in interferometry
- Document writing

People skills:
- Ability to interact with the experimental team: theory-experiment interface
- autonomy

Contexte de travail

The person recruited will work at the Laboratoire Temps Espace (LTE), the result of the fusion of the Système de Référence Temps Espace (SYRTE) laboratory and the Institut de mécanique céleste et de calcul des éphémérides (IMCCE), located at Paris Observatory in the 14th.
The person recruited will join a dynamic research team including 7 permanent staff (6 experimentalists - 1 theoretician), 4 experimental post-docs, 6 research engineers and 10 PhD students.
Theoretical work will be directly linked to one of the team's experiments.

Le poste se situe dans un secteur relevant de la protection du potentiel scientifique et technique (PPST), et nécessite donc, conformément à la réglementation, que votre arrivée soit autorisée par l'autorité compétente du MESR.

Contraintes et risques

The scientific team does not practice homeworking.
