Quantum simulation of molecules

The Department of Mathematics at the University of York is seeking to appoint a Lecturer, Senior Lecturer or Reader in Quantum Information to contribute to the continued strength of this field at York (roughly equivalent to an Assistant Professor or Associate Professor).

Postdoctoral Positions in Experimental Quantum-Dot Spin Qubits and Theoretical Quantum Computing

National Taiwan University is inviting applications for postdoctoral positions in the following areas of quantum computing: (1) Experimental quantum computing for silicon-based quantum-dot spin qubits, (2) Quantum Computing Theory and Modeling, and (3) Quantum computer programing, algorithms and applications. Candidates will work on newly funded quantum computing projects that have both experimental and theoretical components. More descriptions about the postdoctoral positions can be found below. The postdoctoral positions are immediately available, and appointment will be initially for a year with possible extension for additional years based on performance. The applications are now open until positions are filled.

Funded PhD studentship starting April 2019 (Deadline January 13, 2019)

Seeing emergent magnetism in the nanoscale with quantum-enhanced sensing

Description: We will theoretically investigate the physics of a highly excited Rydberg atom within a Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC).The candidate will be expected to help guiding students in the group and survey or develop quantum mechanical methods for the numerical modelling of the system described above.

Requirements: Essential:

1. Ph.D. or post-doctoral experience in quantum theory.

2. Experience in numerical work / simulations.

3. Experience in writing published journal papers in English.

Desirable:

We are currently offering a PhD position in the field of quantum foundations and quantum information theory. The position is associated with the research group of Borivoje Dakic at the Faculty of Physics, University of Vienna, Austria (see https://dakic.univie.ac.at/research/ for research topics). The appointed candidate shall start on 1. 3.

The Physics of Information and Quantum Technologies Group, at Instituto de Telecomunicacoes (in Lisbon, Portugal), is opening a 6-years Researcher position, available to start in March 2019 (earlier also possible).

The candidates need to have a PhD degree and research experience in at least one of the following areas: quantum information theory, quantum computation, quantum matter, quantum optics, quantum networks, quantum thermodynamics.

Application timing

The positions are in the group of Dimitris G. Angelakis in the Centre for Quantum Technologies Singapore (www.dimitrisangelakis.org). We are looking for highly motivated candidates with a strong research background and a PhD in theoretical quantum optics/physics and/or and/or quantum simulation and quantum computation and/or quantum many-body systems.
