We invite applications for PhD positions in gravitational physics at the School of Mathematical Sciences of the University of Nottingham. We are seeking applicants in several areas of research listed below, with one scholarship reserved for AI for gravitational waves.
Potential supervisors include Dr Miguel Bezares (numerical relativity), Dr Stephen Green (black holes, AI for gravitational waves), Prof Kirill Krasnov (mathematical relativity, differential geometry), Prof Jorma Louko (black holes and quantum field theory), Dr Laura Sberna (gravitational waves including astrophysics, black holes), and Prof Thomas Sotiriou (gravitational waves, black holes, and alternative theories), Prof Silke Weinfurtner (analogue gravity, black holes, quantum information). A complete list of projects is available at https://www.nottingham.ac.uk/Mathematics/Study/Research/PhD-research-opportunities/PhD-research-projects.aspx.
Successful applicants will also join the Nottingham Centre of Gravity (NCoG), which unites gravitational physics expertise across the School of Mathematical Sciences and the School of Physics and Astronomy. The Centre comprises 17 permanent staff, as well as typically 7-8 postdocs and 25 students. Staff are active members of the LIGO, LISA, and ET collaborations, providing ample opportunities for international collaboration and impact.
For more information and to apply, see https://www.nottingham.ac.uk/pgstudy/course/research/mathematics-phd. Please apply by 20 December for full consideration.
