Quantiki

The quantum technologies team within the Experimental Quantum Optics & Photonics group at the University of Strathclyde have two positions available to work on:
- laser cooled atomic clocks with the UK National Quantum Technologies Programme
- compact systems for BEC within a new European Space Agency project.

Project description

The School of Mathematics, Statistics and Applied Mathematics at NUI Galway is seeking to recruit a lecturer in Mathematics for the period September 1st 2017 to August 31 2019. The closing date for applications is May 18th. Details of the job description and the application procedure can be found under "academic vacancies" at https://www.nuigalway.ie/about-us/jobs/

Fully-funded positions (all fees plus £14,553-per-year, tax free stipend) are available to undertake research in experimental quantum sensing and measurement. Four studentships are available via the Quantum Technology Hub for Sensors and Metrology, as part of which students will join a cohort of 20 students from across the UK. Candidates in this programme will spend part of their first year undertaking an MRes in Translational Quantum Technology at the University of Birmingham.

Positions are available on the following projects

Open permanent position at Telecom ParisTech
Associate Professor on Quantum Information and Post Quantum Cryptography

The Quantum Information and Applications (IQA) group of Telecom Paristech is conducting a research activity centered on quantum information, quantum communication and cryptography. This research combines theoretical work on quantum information, communication and quantum cryptographic protocols with the development of an experimental platform allowing experimental demonstrations of quantum communication protocols.

Another PhD position is available to work at Peter Gruenberg Institute (PGI-2) and Juelich-Aachen Research Alliance Institute (JARA) in Forschungszentrum Juelich in Germany. The degree will be granted by RWTH University in Aachen. The student will work with Dr. Mohammad H. Ansari and the project can be started in the Summer or Fall 2017.

Applications are invited for the above post to work with Professor Gerardo Adesso on an ERC Starting Grant project entitled “Genuine quantumness in cooperative phenomena” funded by the European Research Council. The principal goal of the project is to analyse and challenge the quantum-classical border from a jointly fundamental and applicative viewpoint. The project is expected to deliver novel tools for the characterisation of quantumness in composite systems and to develop novel platforms for its practical utilisation in quantum technology applications.

Applications from highly motivated researchers are welcome for a postdoctoral position in the group of Prof. Adolfo del Campo in the Department of Physics, University of Massachusetts Boston.

Candidates must hold a Ph.D. in physics or a related field and ideally have strong background in theoretical quantum physics. Research topics include fundamental aspects of time in quantum mechanics, quantum measurement theory, quantum speed limits, non-equilibrium dynamics of isolated and open many-body systems, quantum metrology, and experiment design in quantum technologies.
