February 2024 4 Atomic & Laser Physics The research activity of the sub-department of Atomic and Laser Physics (ALP) focuses on light-matter interactions over a wide range of energy and time scales from high-energy plasmas and ultra-fast X-rays, through quantum information and computation, quantum optics and ultracold atoms. ALP integrates experimental and theoretical activities and there is a broad overlap between areas. Many of the eighteen academics in ALP work in more than one research field, and there is a strong exchange of ideas and of expertise in interactions between groups. There are also strong links between members of ALP and research groups in other sub-departments, especially in Astrophysics, Experimental Particle Physics, Theoretical, and Condensed-Matter Physics. Research into quantum technologies overlaps strongly with efforts in the Materials Department and the Department of Engineering and overlaps with Chemistry, Computer Science, and Mathematics at the University of Oxford and with other UK universities. ALP is home to the Quantum Computing & Simulation (QCS) Hub, which is one of four hubs within the UK National Quantum Technologies Programme. The QCS hub brings together 17 UK Universities, working with an extensive network of industrial and governmental partners, and is focused on the critical research challenges for quantum computing in both the near and long term. Our scientific research spans the full stack of hardware and software, and nucleates at Oxford around the ion-trapping and quantum optics groups in ALP as well as research groups in Condensed Matter Physics, and the Engineering Science and Materials departments. We work closely with the National Quantum Computing Centre, which is located in Harwell. Together with our partners, we also work to build the bridge between research and industry: we train PhD students and researchers in entrepreneurship, intellectual property and commercialisation, and deliver training to technical, commercial and executive audiences to create opportunities for early read-world adoption. The Hub has a dedicated team ensuring optimal dissemination of research results and knowledge and technology exchange with industry. For further information, see https://www.qcshub.org . ALP research in the areas of quantum optics and quantum technologies is carried out by Professors Andrew Daley, Christopher Foot, Jonathan Jones, Axel Kuhn, David Lucas, Alexander Lvovsky, Robert Smith, Andrew Steane, and Vlatko Vedral. Professors Andrea Cavalleri, Artur Ekert, and Dieter Jaksch hold part-time appointments. The experimental work of the quantum optics and technology group focuses on the quantum technologies platforms of trapped ions, ultracold atoms, cavity QED and quantum states of light. Many of the quantum technologies laboratories are located in the purpose-built Beecroft Building, which opened in April 2018 and provides world-class laboratory infrastructure. Theory research in ALP develops proposals for optimally utilizing these platforms and also studies questions of non-equilibrium quantum dynamics, quantum thermodynamics, quantum information and the foundations of quantum physics. Theory and experiment work together closely and maximize synergies through collaborative research projects. Research in high-energy density physics is pursued by Professors Gianluca Gregori, Simon Hooker, Sam Vinko and Justin Wark. Prof. Peter Norreys holds a part time appointment. The group is outward looking and makes extensive use of national and international high-power laser and X-ray facilities. For example, the group is the largest UK user of the NIF (the National Ignition Facility at LLNL), and the largest UK user in the physical sciences of LCLS at SLAC. They lead the UK’s efforts at the European XFEL and played a significant role in developing the HIBEF facility, which combines the XFEL with a high-energy optical laser. New connections with major research facilities are constantly being established. Prof. Hooker leads work on the development of plasma accelerators, and is also a member of the John Adams Institute for Accelerator Science. The technology used by the group creates conditions of relevance to issues of national defence, and the group attract strong funding from the US labs, as well as good support from AWE for an on-going Institute OxCHEDS (Oxford Centre for High Energy Density Science).

February 2024 5 The Department of Physics We are a vibrant community of scientists who aim to be one of the best physics departments in the world. We pursue state-of-the-art research programmes across a broad front, educate the next generation of physicists to the highest standard, promote innovation and enterprise, and strive to enhance the public’s understanding of the achievements and potential of physics and science more broadly. In the 2021 Research Excellence Framework (REF) exercise conducted by HEFCE, Oxford Physics was judged to be conducting more world-leading research than any other UK physics department. We have embarked upon a major infrastructure renewal programme to support our science mission far into the 21st century. The Beecroft Building, the first of four phases of this program, was completed in 2018. This impressive building, in the centre of Oxford, uses the most advanced technologies to provide the stable conditions that enable the extreme precision required for atomic-level experiments. The laboratories have been engineered to provide exceptionally finely tuned, highly stable temperature and humidity in laser enclosures, and employ highly efficient vibration control strategies to ensure that precision science is not compromised by external traffic or internal plant vibration. A suite of these high specification laboratories have been reserved to meet the research needs of incoming academics and the successful candidate will benefit from these resources. We are firmly of the view that the research role of a modern physics department is to address those foremost scientific problems of our age where the experience, skills and intuition of a physicist can make a difference. Our 125 permanent members of academic staff include experimentalists, observers, modellers and theoreticians working across our major themes of accelerator science, astrophysics, biophysics, physical climate science, fundamental particles, (exo-) planetary science, plasmas, quantum materials, quantum information, and semiconductor devices and photovoltaics. We work in close collaboration with colleagues in many other departments in Oxford University, and in many other institutions both nationally, including the nearby UK national laboratories at Culham and Harwell, and internationally: 75% of our papers have an international co-author. We work extensively with high-tech industry and a number of spin-out companies have been created to commercialise technology developed in the department. We have very substantial technical facilities, including mechanical and electronic workshops, nanofabrication, and materials preparation and characterization. We admit about 190 undergraduates to our challenging degree programmes each year. They receive a rigorous education in modern physics from academic staff who are not only world leaders in research but dedicated and talented teachers of the next generation. Most of our undergraduates are studying for the four-year MPhys, which is the main physics degree, with small numbers taking the joint Physics and Philosophy degree (MPhysPhil) or transitioning in the fourth year to the Mathematical Physics degree (MMathPhys), which is taught jointly with the Mathematical Institute. Overviews of the courses can be found at https://www.physics.ox.ac.uk/study/undergraduates and https://mmathphys.physics.ox.ac.uk/ . We recruit graduate students from all over the world. Each year about 90 people with outstanding undergraduate records join our research groups to work for a doctorate with leading physicists and make the next step towards becoming a professional physicist themselves. The total doctoral student population is 400. The strong culture and clear focus of our Access in Inclusion programme has been recognised with a number of prizes and awards over the past few years. Over half of our staff at all career stages from graduate student to faculty are actively involved in delivering the programme which has a full-time coordinator. We work with local schools and run lecture series for the general public; and we invented the citizen science applications climateprediction.net and Zooniverse. February 2024 6 The department is dedicated to the principle of equal opportunities in the workplace and we hold the national Athena SWAN Silver and JUNO Champion awards. We have a very strong facilitation team who understand the UK science funding system in depth and have a great deal of experience in helping newcomers and seasoned academics prepare funding proposals. For more information please visit https://www.physics.ox.ac.uk Mathematical, Physical, and Life Sciences Division The Mathematical, Physical, and Life Sciences (MPLS) Division is one of the four academic divisions of the University. Oxford is widely recognised as one of the world’s leading science universities and the MPLS Division is home to our non-medical sciences, with 9 academic departments that span the full spectrum of the mathematical, computational, physical, engineering and life sciences, undertaking both fundamental research and cutting-edge applied work. Our research tackles major societal and technological challenges – whether developing new energy solutions or improved cancer treatments, understanding climate change processes, or helping to preserve biodiversity – and is increasingly focused on key interdisciplinary issues. We collaborate closely with colleagues in Oxford across the medical sciences, social sciences and humanities, as well as with other universities, research organisations and industrial partners across the globe in pursuit of innovative research geared to address critical and fundamental scientific questions. The disciplines within the MPLS Division regularly appear at the highest levels in world rankings, including the Times Higher Education and QS world rankings. Nationally, the quality of the Division’s research outputs and environment, and the resulting impact, was recognised through strong performances in the UK Research Excellence Framework in both 2014 and 2021. MPLS is proud to be the home of some of the most creative and innovative scientific thinkers and leaders working in academia. Our senior researchers have been awarded some of the most significant scientific honours, and we have a strong tradition of attracting and nurturing the very best early career researchers who regularly secure prestigious fellowships and faculty positions. MPLS continues in its work to support diversity in its staffing, seeing that it will bring benefits to everyone. All academic departments in the Division hold Athena Swan Awards. We have around 7,300 full and part-time students (including approximately 3,400 graduate students) and play a major role in training the next generation of leading scientists. Oxford’s international reputation for excellence in teaching is reflected in its position at the top of the major league tables and subject assessments. MPLS academics educate students of high academic merit and potential from all over the world. Through a mixture of lectures, practical work and the distinctive college tutorial system, students develop their ability to solve diverse mathematical, scientific and engineering problems. MPLS is dedicated to bringing the wonder and potential of science to the attention of audiences far beyond the world of academia. We have a strong commitment to supporting public engagement in science through initiatives including the Oxford Sparks portal (https://www.oxfordsparks.ox.ac.uk/) and a large variety of outreach activities; these are crucial activities given that so many societal and technological issues demand an understanding of the science that underpins them. We also bring the potential of our scientific efforts forward for practical and beneficial application to the real world and our desire, aided by the work of Oxford University Innovation and Oxford Sciences Innovation, is to link our best scientific minds with industry and public policy makers.
