Quantiki

This interdisciplinary project involves applying the quantum formalism (QF) to model experimental observations of human emotional memory performance, and the neural systems that support it, to better understand the interaction between elements. The quantum formalism provides a natural mechanism for modelling combinations of difficult-to-reconcile memory effects, such as the question order effect (where changing question order may change the respondent’s answer) and the response replicability effect (where repeated presentations of a question produce the same response across contexts). Conversely, the paradoxical temporal effects often observed in human memory performance mean it may provide a useful theatre for observing analogies of quantum phenomena we cannot access directly.

A PhD position on the modeling of spin qubits is available at the laboratory of atomistic simulation of the CEA/Interdisciplinary research institute of Grenoble (IRIG).

The project, supervised by Dr. Yann-Michel Niquet, deals with the modeling of spin shuttling in silicon and germanium spin qubits using analytical and numerical techniques. The PhD is expected to start on september/october 2025.

The Trapped Ion Quantum Technology group at Stockholm University is inviting applications for a postdoctoral position in our Trapped Rydberg Ion Project. The candidate will contribute to cutting-edge research on trapped ion experiments, focusing on the implementation of fast quantum gates and quantum algorithms using Rydberg interactions.

The Trapped Ion Quantum Technology Group at Stockholm University invites applications for a highly motivated PhD student to join our pioneering research in quantum simulations with trapped Rydberg ions. The aim of the PhD project is to develop a 2D ion trap experiment for open system quantum simulations using Rydberg ions. This position is part of the ERC Synergy project "Open 2D Quantum Simulator (OPEN-2QS)", which will start on 1 May 2025.
