phase transitions

The newly established group of Prof. Marko Rancic is looking for a highly-motivated Postdoctoral Fellow in Quantum Computing for studying Phase Transitions. The postdoctoral position for an initially shorter duration of 9 months. The University of Luxembourg is an international research university with a distinctly multilingual and interdisciplinary character.

We are seeking a highly motivated PhD student to work on theoretical aspects related to quantum many-body physics. The research will focus in particular on:

- the investigation of non-equilibrium processes in synthetic quantum matter

- the development of protocols for novel engine cycles using non-equilibrium phase transitions

- the application of advanced numerical methods (e.g. tensor networks) to model quantum many-body engines
