Each state is characterized by its own set of elementary excitations that often have no analogue in semi-classical physics.\nThe winner of this competition is usually determined by mechanisms known as thermal and quantum order-from-disorder. Controlling these offers a way to manipulate and study such exotic systems. The successful candidate will realize this control experimentally in carefully selected prototypical magnetic materials.\nJob description\n•\nThe work will involve synthesis and growth of single crystal samples, as well as their characterization with X-ray diffraction\n•\nThe samples will be further characteried with optical spectroscopy experiments, as well as magnetothermodynamic, magnetomechanical and magnetoacoustic measurements at mK-temperatures and high magnetic fields, using equipment available in our laboratory\n•\nThe research will culminate in neutron scattering, ultra-high-field, and muon spin rotation studies at state of the art large-scale user facilities in Switzerland, France, Germany, UK, Japan and the USA\n•\nData analysis and modeling will be done in collaboration with research groups that specialize in theoretical and numerical calculations\nProfile\n•\nThe successful candidate is expected to be actively involved in every phase of the project and to take the lead whenever possible\n•\nNo prior experience in neutron scattering is required, but a solid background in laboratory work and analysis of experimental data is a must\n•\nSince the project is based around rather complex concepts in modern physics, a solid theoretical background in quantum mechanics, statistical physics and quantum solid state physics is absolutely essential\n•\nGood computer skills are a plus\nWorkplace\nWe offer\n•\nYour job with impact: Become part of ETH Zurich, which not only supports your professional development, but also actively contributes to positive change in society\n•\nYou can expect numerous benefits , such as public transport season tickets and car sharing, a wide range of sports offered by the ASVZ , childcare and attractive pension benefits\nWorking, teaching and research at ETH Zurich\nWe value diversity and sustainability\nIn line with our values , ETH Zurich encourages an inclusive culture.

One key aspect of traditional railway transport systems is their plan, which is based on predetermined routes, lines, and scheduled times, with little possibility of adjusting to unplanned and unexpected circumstances. On the other hand, delays and disruption might affect many services throughout a network by means of propagation. The project focuses on timetable planning that is able to minimize delays and their impacts.\nTo do so, large-scale optimisation addresses the railway timetabling problem. Typically Mixed Integer Linear Programming approaches are used, which are mathematically complex, and with some limits, when modelling real-life complexity. Incorporating robustness against delays is an additional important aspect. This project assumes that we are able to quantify how small delays develop and propagate throughout the network; how larger disruptions develop and propagate in the network. Given this, we want to determine robust timetables, with suitable choice of buffers and running time reserves. Those timetables, under delays, are able to perform quantitatively better (i.e. less delays, fewer larger delays,...).\nThis position will be available, with an ideal starting date between September 2026 and April 2027, or further upon agreement; the planned duration of the initial contract is one year, to be extended based on successful performance, for up to 2 years.\nProject background\nThe focus of this project is to understand how delays occur and propagate in a real-life railway network. This exposes some complex dynamics as response to external events (small delays, larger disruptions), and some impact, which can be characterized by simulation models. The scientific challenge involves designing timetabling models that can deal with the complexity of existing system dynamics, in a variety of integrative aspects.\nThe project is designed in collaboration with industry player operating as railway infrastructure manager. The project bases on available solvers for non-periodic timetabling, which include MILP and Logic-Based Benders-Decomposition approaches. This research is carried out within an international cooperation with the Complex Systems group at Utrecht University, in the Netherlands.\nJob description\n•\nexpand and consolidate existing timetabling models to include constraints from limited resources; and complex dynamics resulting from variable choices.\n•\nexpand scope of scheduling models to tackle multi objective problems, and non-scalar objective functions (like probability of delays).\n•\nstudy local and systemic impacts of timetables when exposed to expected or speculative delay dynamics.\nProfile\nIdeally, you have (or are about to receive) a Doctoral Degree in transport sciences, management/ decision sciences, applied mathematics, econometrics, statistics, computer science, physics or related fields.\nYour research track is consistent and shows a track record, or clear potential, for analysing, modelling, control, and optimisation of transport systems. You are highly motivated and self-driven, with a clear research vision, academic ambition, and excellent communication and writing skills (fluent spoken and written English is mandatory). Moreover, the following skills are expected of a promising candidate:\n•\nComputer science and ability to program independently complex software\n•\nAbility to model and work with algorithmic design, existing software and data provided by industrial partners\n•\nKnowledge of mathematical optimisation (MILP, IP, LP) and/or control sciences\n•\nTeam working and communication skills\n•\nKnowledge of German or similar languages is not required but is a plus\nYou enjoy working in an interactive int",
