Welcome, Moritz! Moritz completed his bachelor's degree in Innsbruck and is currently pursuing his master's. His bachelor's thesis on the selection of galaxy clusters using eROSITA and the South Pole Telescope won the FSP Physics Prize. He is now joining the QUDITS team for his master's thesis, where he will work on high-precision calcium isotope spectroscopy with applications such as the early detection of osteoporosis.

Tatjana defended her thesis on Ion-photon entanglement over a 17 km-long optical fibre deployed across Innsbruck, completing her Master's. Congratulations, Tatjana!

Sara successfully defended her Master's thesis titled Towards a Transportable Antiproton Trap for Precision Metrology with Isomeric Highly Charged Ions. Congratulations, Sara!

Researchers at the University of Innsbruck have shown that quantum sensors can remain highly accurate even in extremely noisy conditions. It’s the first experimental realization of a powerful quantum sensing protocol, outperforming all comparable classical strategies—even under overwhelming noise.

Vanya successfully completed his PhD in our group with the defense of his doctoral thesis titled Quantum error correction in a compact ion-trap quantum computer

Congratulations, Vanya!

Florian Kofler successfully defended his Master thesis on Modulated gates for improved ion control. Congratulations, Florian!

Lukas Postler successfully defended his PhD thesis titled Universal operations on protected qubits to complete his doctorate. Congratulations, Luki!

Welcome Nicolas! Nicolas completed his Bachelor's degree at the JKU Linz, and his Master's degree jointly at TU München and LMU München. He conducted his Master's thesis on the theory of critically coupled qubit-photon interfaces in the Group of Prof. Rabl at the Walther-Meißner-Institute. Nicolas has now joined the CryoTrap team where he will work on integrated photonics for surface ion traps.

Welcome Max! Max completed his bachelor's degree in Innsbruck and is currently pursuing his master's there as well. His bachelor's thesis was on dark matter searches at ATLAS. Now he is joining the QCosmo team for his master's thesis, where he will work on a new setup for trapping molecular ions in a cryogenic environment.
