Quantum Information, Sensing and Metrology

A postdoctoral fellowship for a theoretical/computational physicist within the Computational and Information Science Directorate (Network Science Division) of the US Army Research Laboratory. The fellowship focuses on research in quantum information, quantum control, quantum optics, and related fields. Potential research topics include development of novel optimal control methods based on machine learning, development of computer-algebraic systems for modeling quantum networks, use of reinforcement learning for the design of quantum network topologies, and use of optimal control for quantum sensing devices such as atomic interferometers and quantum gyroscopes. The above projects will be conducted in collaboration with MIT, Stanford, and other leading Universities. The fellowship can be renewed yearly up to a total duration of 3 years. The primary research location will be the Open Campus area of the Adelphi Lab Center in Adelphi, MD, in close vicinity to the University of Maryland at College Park.
