Talented PhD Students are sought to join the group of A/Prof Alexei Gilchrist at Macquarie University, Sydney, Australia, to work on projects within theoretical quantum information, and in particular on the characterisation of resourcefulness of quantum measurements and in quantum causal discovery with noisy quantum measurements.

We are seeking highly motivated PhD students to join our research group in Theoretical Quantum Physics. Candidates are expected to have either excellent analytical skills, ideally with a background in fermionic quantum systems and reduced density matrices, or a strong expertise in numerical methods used in quantum chemistry. Mathematical Physicists are encouraged to apply as well. Our projects are concerned with the interface of Quantum Information Theory and Quantum Many-Body Physics.

Successful candidates will work in a team of theorists and experimentalists on fundamental properties of quantum systems, such as quantum coherence and entanglement, and their applications in quantum technologies, such as quantum metrology, sensing, communication, and computation.

We offer Ph.D. positions to hard-working and well-qualified graduate students who wish to obtain a doctoral degree in the following research topics:
* Quantum-optical metrology, imaging, and sensing.
* Quantum and classical engineering of light.

In the Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences, Institute of Nanostructure Technologies and Analytics (INA), Nano-Optics group, the following positions are available immediately:

- A funded postdoctoral position is immediately available in the Nano-Optics group in the field of spectroscopy and quantum optics of single quantum emitters. Experience with the optical characterization of nanostructures or quantum optics is desirable. Also, relevant experience in the field of quantum systems, correlation measurements, nanofabrication is of advantage.
