Postdoc Fellowships: Quantum Solitons in Lanzhou or Yerevan

Recently, a novel Hamiltonian method has been proposed which greatly simplifies calculations regarding quantum solitons. A remote laboratory dedicated to quantum solitons has opened at the Yerevan Physics Institute in Armenia to apply and extend this method. It will last until September 2029. Currently it is hiring interested PhD students and postdocs. There are also postdoc openings, with the same theme, at in the Institute of Modern Physics in Lanzhou.
The new formalism allows the states corresponding to quantum solitons to be constructed explicitly and evolved to understand the dynamics. So far we have been applied it to find quantum corrections to soliton masses, binding energies, form factors, de-excitation rates and scattering amplitudes. Our eventual goal is to test the monopole condensation paradigm of quark confinement.
