Two fellowships are offered in research into quantum algorithms for simulation of quantum systems, including quantum chemistry and quantum field theory. The positions are for 24 months, and are available now.
It from Qubit, the Simons Collaboration on Quantum Fields, Gravity, and Information, anticipates appointing up to 12 postdoctoral fellows across the following locations:
The Stanford Institute for Theoretical Physics (SITP) invites applications for a postdoctoral scholar position in quantum information science. Areas of interest include core quantum information subjects such as algorithms, communication and fault-tolerance, in addition to connections with other branches of physics. The research group is led by Patrick Hayden, with active participation by other SITP researchers Xiao-Liang Qi (condensed matter), Steve Shenker (high energy theory) and Lenny Susskind (high energy theory).
Applications are invited for a Research Fellow in verification of quantum computations and simulations in the quantum information science group of Dr. Animesh Datta.
The post is available initially for fixed-term duration of 2 years. The starting date is expected to be early in 2016.
Postdoctoral opportunities to work at the National University of Ireland, Galway
(NUI, Galway) in theoretical quantum computation (specific areas of interest:
quantum walks and quantum game theory). Postdoc is for a 2-year period, salary
of approx. 31,000 euro/year, with funds also for travel etc.
Contact Dr. M. Mc Gettrick [michael.mcgettrick@nuigalway.ie] in the first instance
for preliminary enquiries.
Stanford University invites applications for the 2016 Nano- and Quantum Science and Engineering Postdoctoral Fellowships. We seek candidates with research interests at the interface between engineering and physical sciences, in particular in the area of nano- and quantum science and engineering. We are especially looking for candidates who will build a clear bridge between physical sciences and engineering applications.
The Advanced Technology Institute (ATI) at the University of Surrey is looking to employ a full time Post Doctoral Researcher for a fixed term position to participate in the EPSRC-funded HyLight project. This project aims to develop hyperuniform disordered nanophotonic structures in which geometrical and topological correlations are accurately controlled for the next-generation of photonic devices, including low-threshold micro-lasers and novel flexible optical micro-circuit architectures.
The position is part of the CELLEX-ICFO-MPQ Research Fellows Program, a strategic research collaboration for which the CELLEX Foundation, a non-profit private philanthropic foundation created by Dr Pere Mir i Puig, ICFO - The Institute of Photonic Sciences, and MPQ - Max-Planck-Institute for Quantum Optics, are teaming up. The program aims at offering top-class postdoctoral researchers the opportunity to join ambitious ICFO-MPQ collaborative projects at the forefront of science and technology.
