PhD student: theory of a few ultra-cold atoms

The PhD student will participate in the theoretical project “Two-component mixtures of a few attractive ultra-cold fermions” inspired by the most recent experiments in the field of ultra-cold gases confined in optical traps. The main objective is to perform very accurate, realistic numerical simulations which will bring us closer to a better understanding of physics of a few attractive fermions.

Fully funded PhD studentship in optomechanics

We have a fully funded PhD position available to work on the theory of cooperative effects in optomechanics and nanomechanics with André Xuereb (andre.xuereb@um.edu.mt) and Vittorio Peano (vittorio.peano@um.edu.mt) at the University of Malta. The project is theoretical, but we expect several strong interactions with many of our experimental colleagues. For more information please read the sample description at: https://goo.gl/rqtdiH

ETSI / IQC Quantum Safe Workshop

Dates: 
Wednesday, September 13, 2017
Submission deadline: 
Tuesday, September 5, 2017
Registration deadline: 
Tuesday, September 5, 2017

The 5th ETSI/IQC Workshop will take place in London (UK) on 13 – 15 September 2017. It will start with a special Executive Track on 13 September and will be followed by an in depth technical track on 14-15 September 2017.

As we increasingly rely on cyber technologies, we are ever more vulnerable to cyber-attacks. The cybersecurity tools at the centre of protecting our business functions and information assets from cyber threats rely on cryptographic tools and standards that will be broken by emerging quantum technologies.
