Not enough research to do I guess...
Gianluca Giorgi is joining the QI wing of the group today, and we finally have to annex other office space outside of KB202.
Jeremie Gillet has joined us as a post-doc, strengthening the atomic entanglement team even further.
Cathal O'Keeffe, Kevin O'Keffee and Ronan Murphy will join us in the next couple of weeks to carry out their final projects. Research on quantum walks, monopoles and cold fermions will receive a boost!
The group is growing, but at least everybody is still excited! (September 2011)
Chandrashekar Madaiah, Ciaran Phelan, Miguel Angel Garcia March and Steve Campbell have recently joined us a post-docs. It is getting really cramped in the office now....
Mark Kennedy has joined our group to carry out a summer projects about ultracold fermions.
Abstract can now be submitted for the Quantum Optics session at this years Photonics Ireland Conference, which will be held in the Grand Hotel Malahide, Dublin, from the 7th -9th September. The deadline is 20th April. (Abstract to other sessions can of course also be submitted now!)
Frictionless flow around the thesis centre has just come to its final end! Congratulations Suzanne!
Robert Hogan and Kyle McEnery have joined our group carry out their 4th year projects for the next 18 weeks.
Congratulations Suzanne! The basis for quantum computing with geometrical quantum numbers is solid.
If you need a qualified quantum mechanic, just give Tara a ring...Congratulations Tara!
Wearing these robes over your normal outfit is a custom invented before global warming had set in...Congratulations John!
Tadhg has won the UCC postgraduate showcase with a presentation about transport in the quantum world.
Finally we have an updated photo that shows the whole group! (May 2010)
