PhD studentship in Theoretical Physics: Bose-Einstein Condensation and Ultracold Gases (Modelling/Theoretical/Computational)

Overview. Ultracold quantum gases and Bose-Einstein condensation are exciting interdisciplinary fields for investigating a diverse range of experimentally-relevant non-equilibrium quantum dynamics, amenable to potential quantum technologies. Read more

Quantum Lidar: ultimate and practical limits of object sensing

Key Words. Quantum Optics, information, sensing.  In Lidar the task is to determine the properties of a remote object by illuminating it with laser light and detecting the scattered return signal. Read more

Space Plasma Turbulence Throughout the Solar System and Beyond

The vast majority of the visible Universe is in a plasma state, and one of the most widespread behaviors observed in such plasmas is turbulence – the transfer of energy across a broad range of scales that leads to complex chaotic motions, structure formation, and energy conversion. Read more

Laser-driven Proton Beam Therapy

Radiation therapy, a cornerstone of cancer treatment, is used in over 50% of cancer patients. The most frequently used types of radiotherapy employ photon or electron beams with MeV-scale energies. Read more

PhD Studentship in Hybrid quantum communication and sensing networks

Applicants are invited to undertake a 3.5-year PhD programme in the Department of Physics and Astronomy at the University of Sussex in partnership with DSTL to investigate the theory of quantum communication and sensing networks. Read more

Quantum Many-Body Scars and Weak Ergodicity Breaking in Rydberg-Atom Quantum Simulators

  Research Group: School of Physics and Astronomy
A perennial mystery of nature is how order can exist amidst chaos. Familiar systems such as the clock pendulum exhibit regular periodic motion. 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

Machine-learning-guided design of efficient sustainable materials for hydrogenation photocatalysis

A fully funded 4-year PhD project in Machine-learning-guided design of efficient sustainable materials for hydrogenation photocatalysis is available with a flexible 2023-2024 start date. Read more

The design of alternative models of electronic structure in the ground and excited states

The Quantum-Chemical Theory and Simulation Laboratory (QCTSL) at the University of Winnipeg is currently searching for a PhD student to perform theoretical chemistry research, particularly in the area of electronic structure theory development. Read more
