Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz (JGU) is one of the largest universities in Germany. Thanks to its location in the Rhine-Main science region, the university can unfold to its full potential and showcase its innovative power and dynamism. Its status as a comprehensive university allows for multidisciplinary learning and teaching and has great potential for internationally renowned, interdisciplinary research. Almost all of its institutes are located on a single campus close to the Mainz city center – creating a lively academic culture for researchers, teaching staff, and students from every continent.


In our research group “Experimental Quantum Optics and Quantum Information”, we investigate various scientific questions in the field of quantum physics using cold, neutral atoms. This includes experiments on long-range magnetic interactions, experiments to test Einstein's equivalence principle, and other applications of quantum sensor technology.


In the BECCAL project, where the position is based, we are collaborating with various German universities and research institutions, as well as NASA, to develop an experiment for generating and investigating quantum gases on board the International Space Station.
