PhD Position Quantum noise limited oscillator for squeezing techniques in Nice
24.03.2026 PhD Position Quantum noise limited oscillator for squeezing techniques in Nice This PhD project focuses on the fabrication and experimental demonstration of a mechanical oscillator whose motion is limited by the quantum radiation-pressure noise from a laser beam. The student will be based at the Artemis laboratory, located at the Mont-Gros site of the Observatoire de la Côte d’Azur in Nice, France. He/She will work within the Lasers and Cavities group and benefit from close supervision by permanent researchers, as well as support in mechanical and electronic engineers. The candidate will join an internationally connected research environment, contribute to publications, present results at conferences, and participate in the Einstein…

AI for Gravitational Waves at CERN, May 5–8, 2026
AI for Gravitational Waves at CERN, May 5–8, 2026 at CERN As gravitational-wave (GW) observatories enter an era of rapidly increasing detector sensitivity, bandwidth, and data rates—while the machine-learning (ML) ecosystem continues to mature—there is a timely opportunity to bring together the GW and AI communities in a focused setting at CERN. This workshop will convene researchers from the LIGO–Virgo–KAGRA (LVK) collaboration, the Einstein Telescope (ET), LISA, and the broader CERN AI community to (i) share recent advances, (ii) identify common technical challenges across experiments, and (iii) seed new cross-disciplinary collaborations—especially those relevant to next-generation detectors and real-time analysis. A dedicated focus will be placed on real-time data processing and…
