Are you a physics postgraduate student interested in Ultracold Physics? Would you like to learn more from international experts in the field?
The 2nd workshop on secure quantum computing will be held on 5/10/2015 (3days after Qcrypto Tokyo!) at the University of Tokyo (Hongo campus) Japan. The workshop consists of 6 invited talks and 2 short talks. The aim of the workshop is to discuss current theoretical and experimental developments on secure quantum information processing, including blind quantum computing, interactive proof, and quantum communications, etc. No registration is needed.
Welcome to the First Edition of the International Conference for "Young Quantum Information Scientists" (YQIS),made by young researchers for young researchers (PhD students and post-doctroal fellows).
Initiated by Alain Aspect (Institut d'Optique Graduate School) and Sébastien Tanzilli (University Nice Sophia Antipolis), the first edition of YQIS will be held at the Institut d'Optique Graduate School in Palaiseau, France, and is made possible thanks to a fraction of the 2013 Balzan Prize awarded to Alain Aspect for his pioneering work in the field of quantum information and communication.
We are pleased to announce the availability of a PhD position at the University of Nottingham in the area of Quantum Technologies related to the creation of an atom-photon interface. The aim of the project is to create a single device, which allows the optimal connection of photons to cold atoms for quantum optics and quantum information experiments. To this end we use a transparent microchip with embedded waveguides, where atoms in a magneto-optical trap can be stored close to the chip surface.
Looking for fresh phd or experienced post-doctoral fellow to work in an experimental ion trap group having diverse projects. The candidates will be working on ion trap based quantum thermodynamics and quantum synchronization (2 separate position). The ion trap experiment is presently up and running (please consult the webpage for more information). Both the projects are adequately funded for next 3-4 years. The group is young and vibrant with international composition in the cosmopolitan setup of Singapore.
In recent years, there has been much progress in realizing systems with many degrees of freedom, and in which matter can be strongly coupled to light. This has been achieved in several experimental setups: ultracold atoms in optical lattices, Bose-Einstein condensates (BEC), semiconductor quantum wells, arrays of microcavities or trapped ions, and optomechanical systems. Such systems share certain important properties. First, they can be driven far out of equilibrium by applying coherent electromagnetic fields.
The KZN node of the South African National Institute for Theoretical Physics (NITheP) has one postdoctoral vacancy in the field of Open Quantum Systems and Quantum Information Processing and Communication.
The rapidly developing field of quantum technologies is set to have a transformative impact on core enabling technologies, from sensors to communications. There is a need for the crucial research that will develop new methods to enable the shift from laboratory devices and prototypes into manufacture and deployment. As part of a strategic investment in quantum systems engineering by Loughborough University, five fully funded PhD studentships are available in the area of Quantum Systems Engineering for Quantum Technologies.
On 21 - 25 September 2015, distinguished international guest lecturers will cover experimental and theoretical aspects of Quantum Information, Quantum Optics and Quantum Nanophysics:
Ataç İmamoğlu (ETH, SUI) | Solid State Devices
Dieter Jaksch (Oxford, UK) | Quantum Simulations
John Martinis (UCSB/Google, USA) | Adiabatic Quantum Computation
Florian Marquardt (Erlangen, GER) | Topology in Quantum Optics
Christine Silberhorn (Paderborn, GER) | Modern Topics in Photonics
The summer school is open to interested advanced undergraduates, graduates and junior post-docs with a good backg
The Quantum Information Group (GIQ) of the Universitat Autonoma de Barcelona, UAB, offers a postdoctoral position within the project RaRQIP (Resources and Restrictions in Quantum Information Processing) funded by the 'Programa Estatal de Fomento de la Investigación Científica y Técnica de Excelencia'. The appointment will be for a one year term, (possibly) renewable for a second year.
