PhD

Palacky University in Olomouc, Czech Republic, announces one post-doc and one Ph.D.-student positions in theory of quantum information processing with photonic continuous variables, funded within EU Quantum Flagship and a national research project. The research will be applied to quantum communications and experimental-theoretical collaboration with the leading experimental groups in the field is foreseen. The positions are in the Quantum Communications sub-group, led by Dr. Vladyslav Usenko, within the Quantum Optics Theory group of prof. Radim Filip.

• the theory of quantum information, entanglement and coherence,
• diamond quantum technologies for sensing, QIP and simulation and medical imaging
• open quantum systems and control,
• quantum effects in biology,
• quantum many body systems and control, and
• quantum simulators in atomic, molecular and optical

Looking for excellent PhD students to join and build a group at @VectorInst on topics at the intersection between machine learning and quantum many-body physics and quantum technology. If you are interested get in touch with me and/or apply to @UWaterloo Physics and Astronomy. A good knowledge of quantum mechanics, statistical physics, and machine learning would be great, but ultimately the important thing is that you are genuinely excited about quantum many-body physics

PhD and Postdoctoral positions will open in Spring 2019 on different projects related to molecular cavity optomechanics, ultrafast quantum state manipulation in THz-frequency oscillators, and THz to visible wavelength conversion.

We are seeking a highly motivated candidate for a Ph.D. position in the project MICROCOMB – “Applications and Fundamentals of Microresonator Frequency Combs”, a Marie Skłodowska-Curie Innovative Training Network funded by the European Union.

We invite applications for a PhD position on “Quantum machine learning” which is part of the newly funded Cluster of Excellence MATH+ within the Berlin research landscape.

We are currently offering a position on quantum thermodynamics within a newly installed international research network. The successful candidate will work in the research group for quantum information theory led by Jens Eisert at the Dahlem Center for Complex Quantum Systems of the Free University of Berlin. The position is part of an exciting DFG-funded network dedicated to realizing "thermal machines in the quantum world", thermodynamic devices that are based on quantum mechanisms in their functioning.

The group of Dagmar Bruss at the University of Duesseldorf and the group of David Gross at the University of Cologne are inviting applications for a postdoctoral position (at Duesseldorf) and a PhD position (at Cologne).

The quantum information science group of Animesh Datta at the University of Warwick is offering a PhD project for October 2019 entitled "Quantum sensors for fundamental physics".

See www.warwick.ac.uk/qinfo/join for details of the project and application instructions.

International students with exceptional records must contact Animesh Datta before January 15, 2018 for scholarship options.

The Dipolar Quantum Gas group, led by Prof. F. Ferlaino, is inviting applications for two PhD positions and one Postdoctoral position in experimental physics. We are looking for exceptional and highly motivated students and researchers from physics to join us in our ambitious goal of understanding dipolar quantum matter and of realizing Rydberg quantum simulators, based on the novel resources provided by multi-electrons atoms from the rare-earth family.
