Applications are invited for two postdoctoral position within the Ultracold Quantum Gases group of Dr. Thomas Busch in the Physics Department at University College Cork. Our theoretical group is working on testing and developing ideas in quantum engineering using systems using cold atoms. The two fellowships are in the areas of

* atom ion hybrid systems
* sub-wavelength addressing in optical lattices

''Postdoctoral position in the Quantum Information Group Télécom ParisTech ­ CNRS, Laboratoire Traitement et Communication de l'Information''

Experimental study of side-channel attacks in quantum key distribution systems

''Background and Description''

The new group of Prof. Stefan Kuhr at the University of Strathclyde, Glasgow, invites applications for a Postdoc position. The research project focuses on single-site imaging and manipulation of ultracold atoms in optical lattices. These novel techniques will be used for quantum simulation of strongly correlated many-body systems and for scalable quantum information processing. More information can be found at http://phys.strath.ac.uk/information/acadstaff/stefan.kuhr.php and by contacting Stefan Kuhr.

Registration deadline:

This School will feature tutorial style lectures introducing themes of broad interest in the areas of quantum gases, quantum optics and condensed matter physics from the ultracold atom perspective, providing a basis for new members of the community and deepening the knowledge of more experienced ones. Additional shorter seminar style talks will give a flavour of current trends in the field. All lectures will be given by leading scientists from around the world, but participants are strongly encouraged to present and discuss their own research, especially during a dedicated poster session.

The most accurate quantum measurements possible are made using an interferometer, which exploits the wave nature of matter and light. In this method, two identical beams of particles are sent along different paths to a detector, with one interacting with an object of interest along the way. Recombining the beams afterwards creates an interference pattern that reflects how much the interacting beam was disturbed -providing details about the object's properties.
