Summer school Imaging in Wave Physics: Multi-Wave and Large Sensor Networks

A summer school on “Imaging in Wave Physics: Multi-Wave and Large Sensor Networks” will take place at the Institut d’Etudes Scientifiques de Cargèse in Corsica on September 23rd – 27th, 2019. The school is organized by A. Aubry, R. Pierrat and S. Popoff and will consist of lectures given by eminent scientists and seminars to present recent works and applications. Main topics will include waves in complex media, time-reversal, multi-wave, seismic, ultrasound, speckle imaging, deep learning. The deadline for applications  is June 1st, 2019. See here for the school poster.

Workshop of the GdR

The first workshop of the GdR Complexe is the opportunity to gather French and international research teams working around the physics of waves in disordered media or in complex systems in the broad sense. The workshop  will take place at Institut Langevin in Paris, on April 1-2 2019.

Complex Nanophotonics Science Camp

The 4th Complex Nanophotonics Science Camp, organized by Jacopo Bertolotti, Paloma Huidobro, Giorgio Volpe and Kevin Vynck, will be held on 11-14 August 2019 in the Cumberland Lodge in Windsor Great Park, near London. The Science Camp brings together about 60 early-career scientists working at the interface between photonics and complexity – but also journal editors, grant panellists, and industrial representatives. Abstract submission is open until March 15 2019.

The school will take place between april 14th and 19th 2019. It is designed for undergraduate master students, and first and second year PhD students.

Postdoc position at INPHYNI

A 18-month, experimental postdoc position is available at Institut de Physique de Nice to work on nonlinear fluids of light. The deadline for application is March 21, 2019.

Workshop on time crystals

A workshop on ‘Time crystals and Related Phenomena’ will be held at the Jagiellonian University in Krakow, 4-6 September 2019.

Poste de Maître de conférences ouvert au LPMMC

Un poste MCF s’ouvre au Laboratoire de Physique et Modélisation des Milieux Condensés (LPMMC) à Grenoble au printemps 2019, sur la thématique “Théorie et modélisation pour les technologies quantiques”, section 28 du CNU. Le profil est très ouvert et inclura les thématiques suivantes: information quantique, simulation quantique, communication quantique, détection et métrologie quantique, voir les détails ci-dessous.

Le LPMMC est un laboratoire de physique théorique de la matière condensée et physique quantique, organisé en trois axes de recherche (systèmes complexes, systèmes corrélés, systèmes mésoscopiques), avec une forte tradition de collaboration avec les équipes expérimentales.

Poste d'expert(e) en calcul scientifique

Le LP2N a obtenu cette année une NOEMI pour un(e) expert(e) en calcul scientifique, afin de développer et mettre en œuvre des logiciels de calcul scientifiques, en particulier en optique et électromagnétisme, et accompagner les chercheurs dans leurs choix de méthodes numériques, dans le développement d’outils numériques originaux et l’élaboration des outils logiciels.

Les Houches predoc school on interaction of light and cold atoms

A predoc school on cold atoms will take place in Les Houches, September 30th – October 11th 2019. The objective of the school is to give students starting a PhD in this field all the necessary knowledge on laser cooling, cold collisions or quantum gases for the success of their project. This year, the school will in addition cover the topic of interaction of light and cold atoms.

PhD position "Simulating disordered quantum systems with a Potassium BEC: many-body effects and topology" (Lille)

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.

Conference "Waves Côte d'Azur"

A transdisciplinary conference on nonlinearity and disorder in wave phenomena will take place in Nice, France, from 4 to 7 June, 2019.

Postdoc position

1+1+1 years, salary: $45,000-$50,000 per annum, depending on skills and experience.
Applications are invited for the above post to work with Prof. Tsampikos Kottos (Wesleyan University) on a project entitled ”Advanced Symmetry Concepts and their Violation in Composite Photonic Structures”. The project will advance the notion of spatiotemporal symmetries in photonic structures for the development of a new generation of non-reciprocal devices (isolators, circulators) and power/fluence limiters (i.e. optical — up to microwave — filters that protect sensitive sensors from high-power/fluence incident radiation). A good knowledge of transport theory and theoretical/computational wave modelling is essential. In addition, a background in more than one of the following techniques is highly desirable: Landauer/Buttiker scattering formalism, transfer matrix formalism, Floquet scattering theory, COMSOL multiphysics. Candidates should be confident, organised, have good communication skills and enjoy working as part of a team as well as independently. The successful candidate will be expected to mentor younger co-workers, contribute to the publication of scientific papers, and to their dissemination at conferences.
