A 2-year postdoctoral position is now available at Laboratoire de Physique Théorique in Toulouse, focused on the theory of quantum disordered systems. Key-words are: glassy nature of quantum disordered systems ; Anderson localization ; Many-body localization ; Superfluid-insulator transition

A workshop on complex materials for nonlinear optics will take place at ETH Zurich on January 2020 from 29th to 31st. The event wants to be multidisciplinary and gathers scientists that are contributing to this field from complementary perspectives, such as those of disordered and complex photonics, nonlinear optics and material science.

Le CEREMA, l’ENTPE et Eco-Pertica proposent un stage sur l’acoustique des bétons biosourcés à base de terre crue au premier semestre 2020. Le stage est à destination d’un(e) élève(e) de M1 ou M2 intéressé(e) par une expérience de recherche dans le domaine de l’éco-construction avec des matériaux locaux. Des connaissances en acoustique seraient un plus, pour autant nous encourageons les candidats motivés par ce sujet à postuler quelque soit leur profil (ingénieur, architecte, physicien…). Ce stage est proposé dans le cadre du projet ECO-TERRA sur le développement de bétons biosourcés à base de terre crue pour l’isolation des bâtiments. Le stagiaire sera basé à Strasbourg.

A 3-year PhD position and a 2-year postdoc position on the theory of complex fluids of light  are available in the “Complex Quantum Systems” group of Laboratoire Kastler Brossel in Paris, see below for the jobs description. The expected date of employment is October 2019 but the offers will remain open until the positions are fulfilled.

Two post-doc openings are starting effectively immediately in the group of Pr. Tsampikos Kottos at Wesleyan University (tkottos at wesleyan.edu). One of the post-doc openings is on experimental microwave physics, and the other in theoretical wave transport.

A PhD and a postdoc position on Anderson localization with ultracold atoms are available in the Quantum Gases group of Laboratoire Charles Fabry (IOGS, Palaiseau).

Online registration is open until July 7 2019 for the ICTP-SAIFR School on Interaction of Light with Cold Atoms, which will take place at ICTP-SAIFR at the UNESP campus in São Paulo, Brazil, in September 16-27, 2019. This school aims at training PhD and post‐doc students (and selected master´s students) in the physics of light interacting with cold atoms, introducing them to the basics and familiarizing them with applications in modern technology.

A PhD position in experimental physics opens in the Quantum Chaos group at the PhLAM Laboratory, Université de Lille. Please see the job description below for more information.

A PhD position in experimental physics opens next year at INPHYNI in Nice, on the subjects of either “Anderson localization of light with cold atoms” or “intensity correlations: from cold atoms to quantum optics and astrophysics”.

A two-week predoctoral school on interaction of light and cold atoms will take place in Les Houches from 30 September to 11 October 2019. The course is targeted at the advanced undergraduate level and emphasizes formal lectures building on textbook knowledge. This goal meets the requirements of the Les Houches pre-doctoral school program. The school is intended primarily for PhD students in their first or second year. Undergraduates at the European Masters level who are planning a PhD study are also invited to apply. Young post-docs entering the field can also apply.
