We have an opening for a student in an experimental/theoretical PhD research project funded by the DOE. The new student would build on previous work in the group using novel methods with reverberant ultrasound to probe a universal but perplexingly peculiar phenomenon originating at the internal surfaces of heterogeneous solids. The project is mostly experimental, but includes theory for the modeling of the multiply scattered ultrasound, and theory for the phenomenon itself. Laboratory techniques include design of the experiments and digital RF signal processing.

Students with interest in complex classical waves and/or nonlinear material properties, are encouraged to contact Prof. Richard Weaver for more information.
