Postdoctoral position in Quantum Physics

The theory group on 'Fundamental Processes in Quantum Physics' at the Center for Optical Quantum Technologies of the University of Hamburg announces a postdoctoral position in theoretical physics.

The underlying project aims at developing novel quantum and hybrid algorithms for quantum simulation based on a Rydberg tweezer platform for ultracold atoms. Applications to relevant computational and optimization problems are envisaged. Ideally a close interface with the underlying driven many body Rydberg physics will be established Research is performed in the above theory group with an immediate link to the corresponding experimental groups.

For more information and/or details please contact Prof. Dr Peter Schmelcher at the below given email (see also https://www.physik.uni-hamburg.de/en/ilp/schmelcher.html).

We are looking for a strongly motivated and highly skilled postdoctoral researcher who shares the excitement of doing research in theoretical physics. The position will be available for a two years period with a possible extension up to five years.

To apply, please send a meaningful CV (including the names of potential references) with a cover letter to pschmelc@physnet.uni-hamburg.de.

Salaries are paid according to the German standards Recruitment will continue until the position is filled.
