quantum foundations

Key responsibilities

We are seeking two research associates (or research assistants, for those who have submitted their PhD thesis by the start date of the role) with experience in the broad area of quantum information science and technology, and an interest in quantum foundations more specifically, to work with Dr Jonte R Hance within the Quantum Research Group in the School of Computing.

The newly formed research group led by Alexandre Orthey at the Instituto de Física Teórica (IFT-UNESP) in São Paulo, Brazil, is seeking a Postdoctoral Researcher for a four-year position. This position is funded by a 5-year FAPESP Young Investigator Grant and focuses on the foundational aspects of quantum mechanics.

We are excited to launch this new opportunity for a Research Associate/Research Assistant in Quantum Modelling to join us in the Quantum Group in the School of Computing. You will join a diverse community of colleagues based in our state-of-the-art Urban Sciences Building, in the Newcastle Helix Campus, 10 mins walk from Newcastle Central Station.

Seeking a Research Fellow in quantum foundations to work on the externally funded project, “Advancing Quantum Experiments to Test Reality Beyond Bell’s Theorem” held by Prof. Howard Wiseman, Assoc. Prof. Eric Cavalcanti and Dr Nora Tischler. We are all members of the Centre for Quantum Dynamics at Griffith University, now subsumed within QUATRI. This grant builds on the Local Friendliness No-Go theorem published by us and co-workers (Bong et al., Nature Physics 2020), in particular with new experiments inspired by it, and working out the implications of the theorem and variations on it.
