2. Postdoctoral Fellowship
About Postdoctoral Position
Our research focuses on the development of scalable quantum networks for computation and sensing applications. We delve into the realm of optical quantum physics, leveraging the use of squeezed light generated by optical parametric amplifiers. Our in-depth exploration centers around the physics and dynamics of open quantum systems, where the primary quantum system interacts with either Markovian or non-Markovian baths. The objective of our research is to comprehend the capabilities and constraints of scalable quantum networks, with particular emphasis on quantum machine learning and novel computational methods.

4. Postdoctoral Fellowship
About Postdoctoral Position
We are seeking a highly motivated postdoctoral research associate I with a background in hydrology to join a team of hydrologists, geochemists, and ecologists on our two closely related funded National Science Foundation Projects titled “Collaborative Research: GCR: Growing a new science of landscape terraformation: The convergence of rock, fluids, and life to form complex ecosystems across scales” and “Collaborative Research: Concentration – Ratio – Discharge (C-R-Q) Relationships of Transient Water-Age Distributions”. The research is conducted using the unique Landscape Evolution Observatory (LEO) facility, which is a replicated set of three highly instrumented convergent, basaltic hillslopes constructed within the University of Arizona’s Biosphere 2. The research team will use measurements of isotopic tracers of hydrogen and oxygen to estimate water transit time distributions to develop a reactive transport model of basalt weathering reactions at the hillslope scale as well as to observe changes in the transit time distributions due to increasing biological complexity, from microbial communities (including microbial crusts) to non-vascular and vascular plants.
