We are looking for a postdoctoral research associate in the theory of open nanoscale quantum systems and molecular quantum optics. The position is for two years, with the possibility of extension towards a habilitation.

If you are enthusiastic about the general direction of our research topics, have just finished your PhD or are about to finish it and are interested in joining our team, please write with the usual documents to Klaus Hornberger (klaus.hornberger@uni-due.de).

We are looking to fill a PhD position in the Hybrid Quantum Systems group led by Carlos Gonzalez-Ballestero at the Vienna University of Technology. We search a motivated candidate with strong analytical skills to develop theoretical work on levitated quantum optomechanics in close collaboration with experiments. Women are especially encouraged to apply. More information on our research and how to apply at https://www.gonzalezballesterogroup.com

The University of South-Eastern Norway has an open position as PhD Research Fellow on the theory of mechanical systems in the quantum regime, and in particular quantum optomechanics.

The employment period will be three years of full time with no teaching obligations. An appointment term of four years with 25 % teaching obligations may be offered to suitable candidates.
