About

We are a theory group interested in how to create, control and exploit quantum coherence in the many-body setting. The big questions we address include interplay of topology, interactions and disorder, and control by driving, feedback and dissipation. We aim at advancing quantum technology and the understanding of non-equilibrium phases of matter.

Masterarbeiten / MSc Theses

We are currently looking for Master students to join our team for their thesis!

Topics are available on quantum optics theory and/or many-body physics including e.g. reservoir engineering, directional amplification, non-reciprocal phase transitions, non-hermitian topology, discrete or continuous time crystals, spreading of correlations and thermalisation of long-range interacting systems and much more.

If you are interested, please email andreas.nunnenkamp@univie.ac.at.
