UCL team develops laser accelerator for neutral particles
Precise control of the motion of atoms and molecules is extremely
difficult, yet important for a large spectrum of scientific and industrial
processes. Applications range from surface growth and deposition, to elucidating
the details of chemical reactions through controlled collisions.

Open Day for Prospective PhD Students
The Atomic Molecular Optical and Positron Physics group will be holding an Open Day on Wednesday 08 February 2012 at 13:00. Come along and find out more about working towards a PhD in our group! You'll get to hear about our research programs, talk to group members and potential supervisor as well as see our labs.
There are PhD opportunities in theoretical and experimental research in the following areas:
- Cold matter and optical trapping
- Positron and positronium physics
- Quantum effects in biological systems
- Quantum information and quantum computation
- Theoretical molecular atmospheric and astrophysics
- Ultracold quantum gases
- Ultrafast laser spectroscopy and strong laser interactions
For more information on studentship opportunities and the application process, please follow this link. You are strongly encouraged to email potential supervisors directly regarding potential projects and funding.
The Open Day will be held in rooms A1 and A13 located on the top floor of the Physics building on UCL's main Gower Street Campus. Please see here for further details of how to get to us. The agenda of the day is:
13:00 - 13:30 Introductory talk by Prof Peter Baker and Prof Sougato Bose (A1)
13:30 - 13:45 Buffet Lunch (A13)
13:45 - 15:30 Poster presentations by research groups (A13)
14:00 - 16:00 Lab tours
In order to know the numbers for catering, please let us know if you will be attending the Open Day by emailing christine. johnston@ucl.ac.uk as the latest by Tuesday 07 February 2012.
