RESEARCH POSITIONS

The Institute for Plasma Research (IPR), a premier grant-in-aid scientific

institute of the Department of Atomic Energy, Government of India, and

devoted to research and development activities in the areas of basic &

applied plasma physics, plans to establish a Centre for Nonlinear Sciences.

The primary aim of the Centre will be to engage in theoretical and

experimental research in nonlinear phenomena associated with systems that

are closely related to plasmas and other allied systems. Typical research

areas will include nonlinear laser plasma interactions, turbulence

phenomena, strongly coupled systems, fluid dynamics, granular matter,

coupled lasers, nonlinear electronic circuits, colloids and theoretical studies

on various nonlinear dynamical systems. The Centre will also organize a

number of training activities including Schools and Workshops.

The Institute is looking for potential faculty and young researchers for the

Centre in these areas of research. The Centre will have both permanent

positions and a large number of long term as well as short term visiting

positions. Applications are invited from interested scientists including fresh

Ph.Ds for visiting/permanent positions. Candidates may send their CVs with

complete publication lists and names of two references by email to

cnls@ipr.res.in . The application should also include a statement of interest

and a research plan. Experimentalists may in addition submit a brief

proposal for setting up an appropriate facility for their work.
