Quantiki

Applications for a PhD position to work in Belfast under the supervision of Dr Alessandro Ferraro and Prof Mauro Paternostro, funded by the Marie Sklodowska-Curie COFUND training programme, are open until 21 July 2017. The project would be developed in strong and close collaboration with the experimental linear-optics group led by Profs Fabio Sciarrino and Paolo Mataloni at Sapienza Universita' di Roma.

The Department of Physics and Astronomy in Sheffield (UK) are seeking a Postdoctoral Research Associate to become a member of the Low Dimensional Structures and Devices group in the Department to work on the EPSRC funded project "Optical Quantum Communication." The project's goal is to develop protocols for optimizing eavesdropping strategies for optical quantum communication. You will work under the direction of Dr Pieter Kok.

We are pleased to announce the master’s programme "Quantum Information Technologies"
The Master's Program is aimed at training of highly-qualified specialists who will be able to solve complex Engineering Tasks on transmission, storage, and processing of data using quantum information technologies and methods based on the advanced achievements in quantum physics of condensed state, quantum and nonlinear optics, quantum communication, quantum computing, nanoelectronics, nanophotonics, and nanotechnology.

In the process of setting up a new quantum optics theory group, I am searching for outstanding PhD students to work on the following topics
- Quantum simulation with quantum optics setups, in particular of lattice gauge theories
- Design of protocols for measuring entanglement in cold quantum gases
- Theory of quantum many-body systems (non-equilibrium dynamics, periodically driven systems, exotic quantum phases, characterization through entanglement)

We are looking for an experienced and ambitious researcher with a background in quantum communications to join our team in one of the UK’s leading research intensive Universities, working on the UK Quantum Technology Hub for Quantum Communications.

The European Space Agency's Advanced Concepts Team (https://www.esa.int/act) is looking for a highly motivated young researcher in the field of Fundamental Physics. For this position there is a focus on research in theoretical quantum physics – including quantum information, optics and metrology – and the application of quantum effects to technology and material design as well as to other fields of physics e.g. relativistic quantum metrology.
