The Light-Matter Interactions Unit (https://groups.oist.jp/light) in OIST, headed by Prof Síle Nic Chormaic, invites applications for a postdoctoral scholar or staff scientist position in the unit. The focus will be on one of the experimental areas within the group such as (i) WGM resonators for nonlinear optics or optomechanics, (ii) complex beam profiles, optical trapping, and fibre-based imaging, or (iii) cold atoms and nanofibres for quantum networks.

There is a vacancy for a postdoctoral researcher on “Experimental Quantum Information with Trapped Strontium Rydberg Ions” at Stockholm University. We are searching for a talented and motivated postdoctoral researcher interested in experimental quantum optics and quantum information with trapped ions. The research will focus on the investigation of trapped strontium Rydberg ions, which is a novel approach for quantum information processing. It joins the high level of quantum control of trapped ions and the strong dipolar interaction between Rydberg atoms.

[Postdoctoral research fellowship and PhD positions]

Two postdoctoral positions and PhD positions are available from Oct. 1 2015 in the group of Quantum Information Theory led by Joonwoo Bae (Hanyang University-ERICA) and Won-Young Hwang (Chonnam National University), recently established consortium in Korea. The successful candidates will conduct an independent research and interact with the local group, in topics of fundamental aspects of quantum information theory toward cryptographic applications.

Two new Postdoctoral Research Associate (PDRA) posts are available in the area of quantum technologies, based in the newly established EPSRC Quantum Communications Hub which is led by the University of York. The £24m five-year Hub, directed by Professor Tim Spiller, involves eight universities - Bristol, Cambridge, Heriot-Watt, Leeds, Royal Holloway, Sheffield, Strathclyde and York (lead). Private sector partners include BT, the National Physical Laboratory (NPL) and Toshiba Research Europe Ltd (TREL).

The new round of Anne McLaren Fellowships (for women in science) and Nottingham Research Fellowships (for all candidates) at the University of Nottingham is now open. The Fellowships are open to outstanding early career researchers with up to 8 years of postdoctoral experience. The Fellowships offer a three year competitive salary, with a link to a permanent academic position at the end of the project (subject to performance).

Prof. Alexandr S. Holevo has been awarded by IEEE Information Theory Society with the Claude E. Shannon Award for year 2016. Prof. Holevo works at the Stekhlov Mathematical Institute in Moscow (Russia). He is one of pioneers of quantum information theory and has made substantial contribution in the areas of mathematical foundations of quantum theory, quantum statistics and quantum information theory.

A meeting on Quantum Information Processing and Applications (QIPA-2015) will be held during 07 - 13 December, 2015 at Harish-Chandra Research Institute (HRI), Allahabad, India. In this program, in addition to fundamental issues related to quantum information, we wish to include topics related to the interface of quantum information with other sciences like condensed matter, cold gas, and quantum optics. You are requested to complete the registration form, if you are interested to attend the program.

Group: AtomChip Laboratory (www.bgu.ac.il/atomchip)

Deadline: until positions are filled.

We invite applications for post-doctoral researchers in the field of quantum optics, cold atoms, and atom spectroscopy. We offer a highly stimulating and energetic environment for experimental and theoretical atomic physicists and very competitive offers for both domestic and international applicants, including generous re-location packages. Applicants should have extensive experience in atomic physics and ultra-cold atoms.

The Department of Physics and Astronomy is looking to appoint a Post-doctoral Research Associate to work on the EPSRC funded project "Towards fault-tolerant quantum computing with minimal resources" under direction of Dr Earl Campbell.

We offer:
11 fully-funded 4-year PhD positions to undertake cutting-edge technology research in Nottingham as part of the UK National Quantum Technologies Hub in Sensors and Metrology (http://www.birmingham.ac.uk/generic/quantum/index.aspx)

Projects include experimental studies of: ultracold atom systems; solid-state atom chips; optical and quantum electronic device design, fabrication and study; 3D printing of next-generation sensor chips; biomedical imaging; GPS
