for more information, the call will be open until November 7, 2023 (AoE).

We are looking for a PhD student to join the quantum information science group of Animesh Datta at the University of Warwick. The goal of this theoretical project will be to develop schemes for quantum-enhanced sensing of novel physics such as potential quantum fluctuations in space-time, collapse of massive quantum superpositions, and the quantum aspects of gravity more generally. Emphasis is to be placed on the experimental feasibility of these schemes in optical, mechanical, optomechanical or other platforms.

The task of the successful candidate is to describe light-matter interaction in and around nanostructures. Both, the material, and the electromagnetic field will be treated in a quantum fashion. The project is part of the Cooperative Research Center SFB 1375 Nonlinear Optics down to Atomic Scales (NOA) https://www.noa.uni-jena.de/. In NOA we aim at a close cooperation with experimental groups.

Phasecraft is the quantum algorithms company. We are building the mathematical foundations for quantum computing applications that solve real-world problems. Founded in 2019 by Toby Cubitt, Ashley Montanaro and John Morton, we are based in London and Bristol, UK. In 2023 we completed a £13m Series A funding round led by leading Silicon Valley deep tech VC, Playground Global.

Topological states exhibit protected currents and robust localization that can stabilize unique functions in stochastic and biological systems. This exciting and growing field opens fundamental theoretical questions in non-Hermitian and dissipative physics with new mathematical and physical properties.
