The University of Dundee is seeking an exceptional candidate to join our Magnetohydrodynamics research group in Applied Mathematics, based within the School of Science and Engineering.
Mathematics at Dundee was ranked 8th (of 53) in the UK and 1st in Scotland in the national Research Excellence Framework assessment in 2014 – a major contributor to this success was the internationally-recognised research of the Magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) group. The MHD group carries out fundamental research into the structure and dynamics of magnetic fields and plasmas, using a combination of numerical simulations (HPC) and mathematical analysis based on dynamical systems theory, braid theory and differential geometry. The main areas of application are astrophysical plasmas, particularly solar plasmas. Group members also work on applications to laboratory plasmas and other fluid dynamical systems (for more details see http://www.maths.dundee.ac.uk/mhd/ ).
The successful candidate will be expected to perform internationally leading research in an area that complements that of the MHD group. We interpret the research area in its broadest sense and welcome applications in all areas of theory, modelling and observations of plasmas and fluids. The successful candidate should also have a commitment to excellence in teaching. Mathematics as a discipline has been placed in the top 10 in the UK in all major subject league tables in 2016, and offers a range of undergraduate and MSc degrees.
The School holds Athena Swan Bronze Awards in all of its discipline areas, recognising its commitment and success in developing practices to support the careers of women in science, technology, engineering, mathematics and medicine (STEMM) in academia.
For a full job description and details of how to apply, see http://www.jobs.ac.uk/job/AUC547/lecturer-in-applied-mathematics-teaching-and-research/
Appointment will be at grade 7 – 8 Lecturer (£34,576 – £46,414)
Closing Date: 6 March 2016
Informal inquires may be made to Prof Gunnar Hornig g.hornig@dundee.ac.uk or Dr David Pontin d.i.pontin@dundee.ac.uk

The LIMTECH Alliance, a German research initiative devoted to the research on liquid metal technologies (https://www.hzdr.de/db/Cms?pNid=2920) that is funded by the Helmholtz association of German research centres, announces the international LIMTECH Young Scientist Award to support the research in the field of liquid metal technologies and to intensify international cooperation. Detailed subjects are, for instance, generic flow phenomena and flow control, magnetohydrodynamic flows, measurement techniques, applications in metal casting, crystal growth or energy conversion and storage, related model experiments and numerical simulations, etc.
The award will be granted annually and recognises outstanding scientific contributions made by young scientists. Candidates must be less than 40 years old. Eligible for application are PhDs or post-docs (typically 3-4 years after completion of the thesis). Applicants must not be members of the LIMTECH alliance.
The award consists of a certificate and is endowed with a lump sum of 2000 €.
The award also includes an invitation to join the LIMTECH research alliance at one of its participating institutions in the following year for up to 6 months to perform related research. The stay will be funded by the LIMTECH alliance. The details are quite flexible and can be arranged according to the preferences of both sides.
Next award: 2016
Nominations: from February 1 to March 15, 2016
Chair of the Award Committee: Dr. Gunter Gerbeth, HZDR, on behalf of the Steering Committee of the LIMTECH alliance.
The winner of the 2016 award will be announced at the upcoming PAMIR conference (Cagliari, Italy, June 20-24, 2016, http://www.diee.unica.it/pamir2016), which is co-organized by LIMTECH, and at which the winner is expected to give a lecture. LIMTECH will pay for his/her registration fee.
Submission of award nomination:
Nominations can be made by individuals, mentors of individuals or institutions. Candidates may nominate themselves. The application should contain
All application documents must be submitted in pdf format via email to:
limtech-allianz@hzdr.de. The deadline for submission is March 15, 2016.
