The Asia Pacific Center for Theoretical Physics (APCTP) invites applications for one or two postdoctoral positions in the area of theoretical quantum information and many-body physics. The successful candidate will join the Junior Research Group led by Prof Jaeyoon Cho. The group has a broad range of interests in quantum information and many-body theories. APCTP is situated at Pohang University of Science and Technology (POSTECH), Korea, and provides a collaborative and interdisciplinary environment for theoretical physicists.
We are looking for a co-investigator in a QuantEra project “Cavity-Enhanced Quantum Optical Clocks” (Q-Clocks). Q-Clocks seeks to establish a new frontier in the quantum measurement of time by joining state-of-the-art optical lattice clocks and the quantized electromagnetic field provided by an optical cavity. The goal of the project is to apply advanced quantum techniques to state-of-the-art optical lattice clocks, demonstrating enhanced sensitivity while preserving long coherence times and the highest accuracy.
Position Description: The Condensed Matter and Complex Systems Group in the Theoretical Division of Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL) has a postdoctoral position opening in the area of quantum computing and quantum machine learning. This position provides an opportunity to develop novel quantum algorithms (including noise-resilient algorithms) and generally answer the fundamental question: what are quantum computers good for? The postdoctoral project will also explore the emerging field of quantum machine learning.
Theoretical studies of a few-body physics experimentally realized with ultra-cold atoms
In the group of Prof. Uwe R. Fischer at Seoul National University a position is open in the field of dissipative quantum state engineering. Possible topics include applications to noiseless subsystem protection of the fidelity of error correcting codes, quantum metrology and sensing, and concrete implementation setups.
Initial appointment is for one year with a possible extension to two years. Salary is according to the Korean postdoc scale.
Open Postdoc Fellowships at the Erwin Schrödinger Centre for Quantum Science and Technology (ESQ)
The Erwin Schrödinger Center for Quantum Science and Technology ESQ is run by the Austrian Academy of Sciences in partnership with the University of Vienna, the Vienna University of Technology and the University of Innsbruck, supported by the Austrian Ministry of Education, Science and Research and cofounded by the European Commission.
Postdoc Opportunity at NIST:
Nanoplasmonics and Quantum Simulation in Single-Atom Devices
NIST (a government research lab located in Maryland, USA) has a program in researching single-atom devices. These devices, when operated at low temperatures, give us the remarkable ability to monitor or control the motion of single electrons. Among the goals of our research are to develop charge and spin qubits for use in quantum computing.
At this time we have two projects:
The project is to carry out theoretical research on the physics of trapped Rydberg ions and atoms within the ERyQSenS-consortium (funded through the QuantERA call) which is formed by European experimental and theoretical research group.
We seek up to two highly motivated, skilled and independent researchers, who will join our quantum information systems group at (NUS ECE and CQT) and proactively contribute to ongoing and upcoming projects in quantum communication and quantum information theory.
