Exploring Quantum Gravity with Quantum Information Science

Our two most successful theories of the universe - quantum theory and general relativity - are incompatible with each other. Several approaches to unifying these theories have been developed, such as string theory, loop quantum gravity and semi-classical gravity, but we do not know which, if any, are correct. Read more

Development of High-Data-Rate Quantum Gravity Sensors (with Toyota Motor Europe)

Project Description. The University of Birmingham, in partnership with Toyota Motor Europe, is offering a PhD position for developing a high-data-rate quantum gravimeter for gravity map-matching navigation and other applications. Read more

Effect of bed slope and roughness on the spreading and dilution of gravity currents

  Research Group: Water Engineering and Natural Environment
Gravity current is frequently encountered in natural (e.g. saltwater intrusion in an estuary) and man-made environments (e.g. mining solution; desalination). Read more

Novel Atom Interferometry Techniques (with Toyota Motor Europe)

The University of Birmingham, in partnership with Toyota Motor Europe, is offering a PhD position for developing novel atom interferometry techniques for a high-data-rate quantum gravimeter aiming for gravity map-matching navigation and other applications. Read more

Quantum-Enhanced Interferometry for Quantum Gravity

  Research Group: Gravity Exploration Institute
Quantum mechanics and general relativity are the most successful physics theories of the last century with impacts on our daily lives from smartphones, medical diagnostics to GPS navigation. Read more

Does magnetic field matter during the earliest stages of star cluster formation?

  Research Group: Cardiff Hub for Astrophysics Research and Technology
Stars light up every single galaxy across the Universe, allowing us to study their structure across the cosmos. Despite their importance, there are still many aspects of the star formation process that remain poorly constrained. Read more

Astrophysical interpretation of gravitational waves with space-based observatories.

  Research Group: Gravity Exploration Institute
Gravitational-wave astronomy was pioneered in September 2015 with the first direct observation of gravitational waves by the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-wave Observatory (LIGO). Read more

SonoBeamer – ultrasonically levitated 3D printing

Industrial Partner. STEP 3D. The objectives of this project include demonstrating that ultrasound can be used to levitate an object in a stereolithography (SLA) 3D printer whilst it is being printed. Read more

Fully funded PhD studentships available within the EPSRC CDT in Topological Design

We are currently accepting applications for our fifth cohort at the EPSRC CDT in Topological Design. We have up to 10 fully funded PhD studentship available to start from January to December 2023. Read more

Exploring the Gravitational-Wave Sky with Machine Learning

  Research Group: Gravity Exploration Institute
Gravitational waves (GWs) are produced by some of the most violent events in the Universe, such as the mergers of black holes and the explosive deaths of massive stars. Read more

Searching for exotics signatures (Dark Matter/Extra Dimensions)

The long-established RHUL ATLAS group is renowned for its expertise in physics (Higgs, top quark and exotic signatures involving electrons), statistical methods and plays a leading role internationally in the ATLAS trigger and data acquisition systems. Read more

Chiral Gravitons in Topological Quantum Matter: From Solid-State Materials to Quantum Computers

  Research Group: School of Physics and Astronomy
A major open problem in modern physics is the table-top generation and detection of emergent particles analogous to gravitons. the elusive mediators of gravitational force in a quantum theory of gravity. Read more
