Dear all, As a follow-up for the residential meeting at Vejle, before which I only had response from 2 groups, I kindly ask you to - groupwise, if possible - inform me in writing about your planned activities in connection with talent students: "Please also take responsibility for organizing suggestions for host groups for “Talent students” (i.e. students being admitted to the talent program from their second year); such groups may consist of the entire topical group or one or more subgroups." Please include in your (preferably brief) response which (sub-)groups you suggest, 5-10 keywords about the scientific content, and a bit about which competencies you expect the talent students may obtain from your programme (both the 'soft' such as presentation skills, and the 'hard' such as programming in LabVIEW), and a suggestion for the final evaluation, to be done at the end of the 1/2 year (which product?).

[vip-all] General Physics Colloquium today at 15.15
by Karin Vittrup 30 Nov '16

30 Nov '16

General Physics Colloquium Wednesday 30 November at 15.15 in Fys. Aud. Speaker: Georg Bruun IFA Title The physics behind the Nobel Price 2016 Abstract: The Nobel Prize in physics in 2016 was given to David J. Thouless, J. Michael Kosterlitz, and F. Duncan M. Haldane "for theoretical discoveries of topological phase transitions and topological phases of matter". I will in this talk try to give a straightforward introduction to the physics behind this price. Also, I will outline how their work laid the foundation for a whole new research field investigating topological insulators/superconductors, which is one of the most active research topics in physics today. Coffee and cake will be served at 15:05

Kære alle, vi har netop slået ledigt professorat op i Materiale Fysik med ansøgningsfrist midt i februar. Jeg vil gerne om alle, der har gode kontakter til dette felt vil sende en email til relevante modtagere med opslagsteksten (se nedenfor). Bemærk, at vi tolker det faglige felt i bred forstand. Tusinde tak, Lars Dear Colleagues, The Department of Physics and Astronomy at Aarhus University is looking for a professor in the area of materials physics. I am writing to ask if you could possibly tell it to candidates, who might be interested in such a position. The announcement is given below. Thanks very much! Best regards, The Department of Physics and Astronomy (www.phys.au.dk<http://www.phys.au.dk/>) invites applications for a permanent position as Professor in experimental materials physics. The position is open from 1. September, 2017. The research at the Department of Physics and Astronomy covers a wide range of subjects in both theory and experiment. The Department has a number of outstanding in-house research facilities at its disposal, such as the third generation synchrotron radiation source ASTRID2, a state-of-the-art clean room and a wide range of complementary microscopy and analytical tools. The existing solid state and materials physics activities also enjoy a tight link to nanoscience and materials chemistry at Aarhus University. The successful candidate is expected to conduct an ambitious research program and to contribute to the development of the research field within the Department. The research subject of materials physics shall be understood in a broad sense, spanning the entire range of e.g. surface reactions, fundamental studies of novel nanomaterials to synthesis and technological applications of new materials. Applicants must have a strong record of original scientific research at the highest international level. They should document dynamic leadership as well as the ability to promote collaborative research and attract external funding. Applicants are expected to document their experience with all facets of university teaching, including the supervision of MSc and PhD students. The place of employment is Aarhus University, and the place of work is Department of Physics and Astronomy, University of Aarhus, Ny Munkegade 120, DK-8000 Aarhus C Further information can be obtained from Head of Department Lars H. Andersen by e-mail: lha(a)phys.au.dk<mailto:lha@phys.au.dk>
