The project is part of a&nbsp;<strong>consortium with experimental and theoretical groups at Universidad Complutense of Madrid<\/strong>&nbsp;(F. Martinez-Pedredro and C. Valeriani).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The aim of the project is to understand:<br>i) the nature of the different phases of chiral active and actuated colloidal matter, their flow and material properties as well as their structure formation mechanisms;<br>ii) the emergence of collective dynamics in chiral systems at high densities, addressing the question of how the properties of solids (both ordered and disordered) are affected by non equilibrium fluctuations.<br>We will study the statistical mechanics of simple model systems, from which we can provide some analytical predictions, performing a thorough analysis using particle-based simulations. We will also combine such theoretical analysis with experiments on magnetic colloids at liquid-liquid interfaces (in Madrid) and collectives of robots (in Barcelona).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Candidates must hold (or about to) a Master\u2019s degree in Physics or a related discipline, have some experience in theoretical\/numerical modelling of condensed matter systems and a background in statistical mechanics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Interested candidates should&nbsp;<strong>contact me as soon as possible at levis@ub.edu<\/strong>&nbsp;and<br>include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>A cover letter (max. 200 words).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Curriculum vitae<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Contact details of at least one reference.
