About Toyo University
Basic information and contact details for Toyo University
Toyo has a long tradition and history. In 2012, Toyo celebrated the 125th anniversary of its foundation. Toyo is one of the largest universities in Japan with more than 30,000 students. Toyo University began as a private philosophy academy, founded by Dr. Enryo Inoue in 1887. It was set up on the grounds of the Rinsho Temple in what is the Bunkyo Ward of Tokyo. It was renamed as the Philosophy Academy University in 1903 and then as Toyo University in 1906. It began accepting female students in 1916, making it one of the first co-educational universities in Japan. It comprises 11 faculties with 44 departments, 10 graduate schools (offering 32 majors), five affiliated high schools and a law school. Research activity is conducted on a global scale with the use of the International Research Centre for Philosophy, the Research Centre for Public/Private Partnership (PPP) and the Bio-Nano Electronics Research Centre. Toyo offers both liberal arts and science courses. There are four main campuses at Toyo University: Hakusan Campus (the main site), Kawagoe Campus, Asaka Campus and Itakura Campus. All are located in the heart of Tokyo, and can be accessed within 10 minutes from the nearest train station. Hakusan Campus is green and quiet and is surrounded by residential homes and shrines. The Confucian Botanical Garden Koishikawa Korakuen and Tokyo Dome City, with its stadium, amusement park and luxury hotel are also within walking distance. Toyo’s sports teams, including baseball, track and field, sumo wrestling and ice hockey, demonstrate superior ability in intercollegiate competitions (producing Olympic medalists and numerous professional athletes).

B1 Grundstufe (praedoc) Limited until: 30.06.2030 Reference no.: 5596 “How does a quantum object gravitate?”, “How far can we push massive objects into the quantum regime?”, “How well can we measure gravity of microscopic systems?”. Such questions and their implications for the foundations of physics are the driving force behind our research. You will be part of our team and develop new ideas, technologies and experiments to provide new insights on macroscopic quantum physics, on gravity at small scales and, in the long run, on the phenomenology of the gravity-quantum interface in table-top experiments. Your personal sphere of influence: As a university assistant (praedoc) on this 4 year position, you will be part of the Aspelmeyer group, and you will be exploring fundamentals and applications of macrosopic quantum coherence in levitated solidstate platforms.

The main research activities of the Aspelmeyer group include quantum optical control of levitated solid state objects, the exploration of their quantum properties for fundamental questions and novel quantum technology platforms, as well as precision measurements of ultra-weak gravitational forces. On the quantum side, we explore the extreme regime of motional quantum states of solids and their interactions to understand how to maximize mass, delocalization, and coherence time in quantum experiments. On the gravity side, we explore the extreme regime of gravitational phenomena of miniature source masses to understand how to isolate gravity from all other interactions on a microscopic scale. Our main motivation is to explore the interface between quantum physics and gravity with new experimental platforms. Your future tasks: You will actively participate in research, teaching & administration. This means: You are involved in a specific and well-funded research project, here focused on exploring fundamentals and applications of quantum control in levitated solid-state platforms.
