Description

Associate Research Scientist positions in the Division of Science at New York University Abu Dhabi are invited in the broad research areas of mathematical analysis and partial differential equations (PDEs). While all applicants with a background in the analysis of PDEs will be considered, candidates with prior experience in theoretical physics, fluid mechanics, kinetic theory, dispersive equations or harmonic analysis will be given special attention.

The Research Associates will be appointed for a duration of two years and will work under the supervision of Associate Professor Diogo Arsénio on subjects including:

• Magnetohydrodynamics and the mathematical theory of plasmas.
• Collisional kinetic models and their hydrodynamic limits.
• Dispersive phenomena in kinetic theory.
• Quantum gases.

Applicants must hold a PhD degree in mathematics, physics or a related field and have at least three years of...
