Theory postdoc "Local probes of dissipation"
April 1, 2021 , Strasbourg (France)

A two-year postdoc with Rodolfo Jalabert & Dietmar Weinmann (IPCMS, Strasbourg) in collaboration with Denis Basko & Rob Whitney (LPMMC, Grenoble). The candidate will theoretically explore how and where dissipation occurs in "non-local" quantum transport. He/she will use modelling of local probes of nanoscale systems to address fundamental questions of quantum thermodynamics. This is motivated by recent experimental breakthroughs in local probes. Start date: first-half of 2021.

Postdoc in Theoretical Quantum Thermodynamics
Dec. 23, 2020 - Jan. 26, 2021 , Lund University, Sweden

We are looking for a postdoc working on stochastic and quantum thermodynamics. A central objective will be the derivation of a description of systems coupled to finite-sized reservoirs. The effect of fluctuating temperatures on heat-, as well as information-driven engines will be investigated.
