STI – PhD position in the Dynamic Quantum Materials Laboratory

Center for Quantum Science & Engineering

截止时间：招满即止

博导：Professor Gregor Jotzu

Project description

In the Dynamic Quantum Materials Laboratory we generate materials with properties that can be manipulated on a femtosecond time scale. By driving solids with intense ultrashort laser pulses, we directly address collective modes and operate at the fundamental timescales governing the dynamics in a material. These light-matter hybrids with tunable properties opens up new ways to understand how order forms in a quantum many-body system.Our research lies at the interface of quantum science, ultrafast laser optics and materials engineering. Students engaged in this interdisciplinary work will benefit from collaborations with world-leading experimental and theory groups at EPFL and beyond, the Center for Quantum Science & Engineering, the Lausanne Center for Ultrafast Science and the Center of Micro- NanoTechnology.The PhD position, supervised by Professor Gregor Jotzu, aims at exploring the light-induced control of quantum magnets and their phase transitions, ultrafast dynamics of superconductors, and unconventional non-equilibrium topological phases. Experimental tasks encompass generating strong mid-infrared and THz laser pulses, as well as establishing detection techniques including ultrafast optical spectroscopy and novel magnetometry in a cryogenic environment.

Admission requirements

• Candidates should be highly motivated for cutting-edge experimental research, demonstrating both teamwork and independent initiative.

• A solid background in physics or materials, especially optics, quantum and solid state physics, is important.

• Lab experience would be advantageous, particularly in areas like laser optics, cryogenics, material characterization, data acquisition or experiment control.

• Effective communication in English and programming skills are also beneficial. However, the key requirement is a willingness to learn and engage in challenging research.

Please send your application todqml.app@listes.epfl.chincluding：

• a comprehensive CV detailing relevant skills,

• transcripts (including Bachelor’s),and

• contact details for at least two potential referees.

• Briefly explain your interest in this specific research direction.

PhD fellowship in Particle Astrophysics and Multimessenger Astrophysics

University of Copenhagen | Faculty of SCIENCE

截止时间：2024年4月14日

The project The project is part of the ERC research project “ANET,” which is financed by the European Research Council.
Start date is (expected to be)

01 September 2024 or as soon as possible thereafter.

Employment as PhD fellow is full time and for maximum 3 years. This project aims at solving one of the most urgent riddles in multi messenger astrophysics: how neutrinos affect the physics of the death of massive stars as core-collapse supernova explosions and the merger of two neutron stars or a neutron star and a black hole. Neutrinos are feebly interacting particles copiously produced in these dense sources.

Neutrinos exist in three different kinds, or flavors, and have the fascinating property of changing their flavor while propagating (flavor conversion). Because of the high density of neutrinos in the core of supernovae or compact binary mergers, flavor conversion becomes a non-linear phenomenon, whose understanding is quite preliminary. Numerical simulations buttressed by analytic diagnostic methods will be employed to radically advance our understanding within a multi-messenger framework. This project will have implications on fundamental physics, the origin of the heavy elements, as well as our comprehension of the behavior of matter at extreme densities and the physics of neutrino-dense sources.

Who are we looking for?

Highly motivated, outstanding candidates interested in research in theoretical particle astrophysics and multi-messenger astrophysics are encouraged to apply.
