PhD position at Chalmers: Dynamics of spins and chiral phonons
March 11, 2024 - April 2, 2024 , Chalmers

We offer a four-year PhD position in the Geilhufe group at Chalmers. This opportunity is part of a research initiative on emergent magnetic phenomena due to the coupling of spin and laser-excited chiral phonons. The overarching goal is to derive coupling mechanisms between phonons and spin, e.g., based on inertial effects and estimate their strengths and impact in realistic setups. This information is crucial for understanding the complex phase diagram of materials outside of equilibrium.

Postdoc position at Chalmers: Ultrafast Thermodynamics
March 11, 2024 - April 8, 2024 , Chalmers, Gothenburg, Sweden

We offer a 2+1-year PostDoc position in the Geilhufe group at Chalmers. This opportunity is part of a research initiative centered on investigating thermodynamic properties in laser-excited materials. The overarching goal is to study the entropy and heat production associated with material excitations (such as phonons and magnons) in the presence of thermal and quantum noise. The goal is to use this information for understanding the complex phase diagram of materials outside of equilibrium.

Postdoctoral position on COMPLEX QUANTUM SYSTEMS at IFISC
Feb. 1, 2024 - Feb. 28, 2024 , Institute for Cross-Disciplinary Physics and Complex Systems (IFISC), Mallorca, Spain

We offer a 2-years contract starting by fall 2024 (aprox.) associated to the project “CoCuSy” lead by PIs Prof. Roberta Zambrini, Dr. Gian-Luca Giorgi and Dr. Gonzalo Manzano. Project topics are (to focus preferably in two): Open Quantum Systems, Quantum Thermodynamics, Quantum Neural Networks, Quantum Reservoir Computing. Previous experience on the topics, scientific independence and ability to work in group will be valuable. See full announcement for application instructions.

Job offer: Research fellow in the theory of Photonic Quantum Gates based on Collision Model approach
Jan. 1, 2024 - Dec. 31, 2024 , MajuLab, Centre for Quantum Technologies, Singapore

We are searching for a talented post-doctoral fellow to model the dynamics and thermodynamics of quantum light pulses interacting with non-linearities close to the quantum regime induced by a Kerr optical cavity. The candidate will build a complete framework to model light-matter interaction in a fully Hamiltonian way. She/he will be hosted in the |Quantum Energy Team>, in the group of A. Auffeves@MajuLab, CQT, Singapore. Strong interactions with top-level experimental groups to expect!

Postdoc or PhD position in open quantum systems, quantum thermodynamics, chemical reaction modelling
Jan. 1, 2024 - Dec. 31, 2027 , Potsdam University, Potsdam/Berlin, Germany

A number of PhD/postdoc positions are available as part of a large collaborative project on plasmonic chemistry. https://www.uni-potsdam.de/en/sfb1636/jobs/general-information For example: Project (A05) aims to include a system's coupling to the environment in the modelling of chemical reactions. This will require using open systems methods to establish if environment-effects make a difference to reaction pathways. Position open until filled. Contact: janet.anders@uni-potsdam.de
