PostDoc

We are currently offering a position to a highly motivated and well-qualified researcher who intends to enhance the career in the field of quantum information science, on either the postdoctoral or the PhD student level. 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.

In the Theory of Cold Atoms group of Prof. Uwe R. Fischer at Seoul National University, a Postdoc position is open in the field of quantum simulations of curved spacetimes (the so-called analogue gravity).
Possible topics include implementations of analogues of trans-Planckian physics in cosmology and in Hawking radiation, and the proper treatment of the quantum backreaction problem.
Initial appointment is for one year with a possible extension to two years. Salary is according to the Korean postdoc scale.

The project is to carry out research in the broad field of non-equilibrium quantum and classical many-body system, including cold atomic gases, quantum optical systems, classical glassy and driven systems, neural networks and machine learning, and systems at the interface of classical and quantum.

Skoltech’s Deep Quantum Labs is seeking two highly-talented and fast thinking developers (level depends on experience) to utilize our new supercomputing facility. This facility is maintained and operated by CDISE (Skoltech) and opens the door to large-scale internationally competitive simulations (500000+ NVidia – Volta – GPU cores and 2000 CPU cores).

The Light-Matter Interactions Unit (https://groups.oist.jp/light) at OIST Graduate University invites applications for a postdoctoral position in any of their research areas (optical trapping, whispering gallery resonators for sensing/nonlinear optics/optomechanics, optical nanofibres, cold atom physics). The position is for a start later this year (2018) and the duration is dependent on the candidate’s background. For those with significant experience post PhD, the appointment may be at staff scientist level (fixed duration).

The Faculty of Sciences at H.I.T. – Holon Institute of Technology (Israel) invites applications for a postdoctoral position in mathematical physics funded by the Israel Science Foundation and the Holon Institute of Technology.

The successful candidate will be involved in several exciting research projects lying at the crossroads of random matrix theory, quantum chaology and the theory of integrable systems. Previous research record in random matrix theory and related fields is an advantage, strong analytical skills is a must.

Palacky University in Olomouc is announcing the opening of a 2-year position for a post-doctoral researcher in the field of theory of quantum communication with application to satellite links, within a project funded by the European Space Agency. The research will be primarily focused on quantum key distribution with faint laser pulses and single photon detectors and will include international experimental-theoretical collaboration.

dr hab. Marcin Wiesniak, University profesor at the University of Gdansk, is seeking a post-doc for the the grant focused on multipartite entanglement. The candidate will has two fields in which she or he specialize:
Option 1:

A post-doc position in Quantum Foundations is currently available at the Laboratory of Theoretical Physics and Models (CNRS/Université de Cergy-Pontoise) in Cergy-Pontoise (Paris area).

This is a two year position, with a starting date on 1st October or beyond.

The topic is in the area of weak measurements in relativistic contexts. More details can be found here:
