Experimental and theoretical positions are available to investigate novel trapping and cooling schemes for atoms and molecules using optical forces shaped by nanostructured surfaces, and new phenomena resulting from the interaction of the atoms/molecules with the nearby wavelength-scale structures. With funding totalling nearly £1M, these projects form part of a major European collaboration led by Southampton. The aims are to extend laser cooling to a broader range of species, scale present individual traps to miniature 2-D arrays, explore new cooling mechanisms based on the dipole force, and investigate new effects and enhancements associated with the scale and proximity of the mirror array. The research promises techniques and technologies to underpin atom-on-a-chip devices and single-atom detection, enhanced atomic and molecular sensors and, ultimately, applications from ultracold chemistry to quantum information. The School of Physics and Astronomy is one of the top five Schools in

The CDVP is seeking a MSc/PhD research student to join the "iCLIPS: Integrating Context through Annotation and Linking in Information Retrieval for Personal Information Archives" project. Developments in digital data capture and storage mean that it will soon be possible to archive one's entire life experiences in personal information archives, or human digital memories (HDMs). Current search engines for the World Wide Web output document lists ranked by combining measures based on the Web's link structure and a match between document contents and search requests. The absence of links and lower quality of HDM document contents means that enhanced information retrieval methods are required to enable effective searching and location of interesting and useful material from within these archives. iCLIPs is concerned with the development of novel search methods for these collections. The project requires study of both information retrieval algorithms and the exploration an
