Melbourne-Bayreuth Joint PhD in Exciton Science
The Universities of Melbourne and Bayreuth have created a new, international joint phd. graduate researchers spend a minimum of 12 months at each university and are eligible to graduate with a jointly awarded phd recognised with a testamur from each university. This project is a collaboration between the School of Chemistry at the University of […]
Post-Doctoral Fellow in Statistical Physics of Active Matter in Luxembourg
A Postdoc position is available in the frame of the project “Statisical Mechanics of Active Matter” funded by the FNR. The goal of the Postdoc project is to combine recent methods of stochastic thermodynamics and large deviation theory to address problems of optimal control in active matter. The candidate is also expected to take part […]

The position calls for a visionary leader and […]
The curious incident of Swarm and sprites in the night-time
We are all familiar with the bolts of lightning that accompany heavy storms. While these flashes originate in storm clouds and strike downwards, a much more elusive type forms higher up in the atmosphere and shoots up towards space. So, what are the chances of somebody taking photographs of these rarely seen, brief ‘transient luminous […]
Particle physics milestone achieved at CERN
After 50 years of research, physicists have found evidence that the elusive subatomic quasiparticle called odderon actually exists. For most of us, physics terms such as odderon are – and will always remain – firmly lodged in the science fiction realm. Not so for the scientific community, whose determined members spent nearly half a century […]
Particle physics milestone achieved at CERN
After 50 years of research, physicists have found evidence that the elusive subatomic quasiparticle called odderon actually exists. For most of us, physics terms like odderon are (and always will be) part of science fiction. However, this is not the view of the scientific community, whose determined members spent almost half a century searching (without […]
PhD position in Physics in France
Description The research will be carried out with systematic and iterative ‘material synthesis-characterization-analysis’ loops, to obtain insights in novel material system grown by molecular beam epitaxy at University of Copenhagen & Microsoft via use of polarized neutron reflectometry (PNR) at ILL to obtain depth resolved magnetization profiles and X-ray magnetic circular dichroism (XMCD) techniques at […]
