AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on a student seeking interview insights for a career project in quantum information science (QIS). Despite reaching out to several professionals, the student has not received any responses and is looking for anyone knowledgeable in the field to answer six specific questions about QIS. The questions cover topics such as safety equipment, job availability, future job prospects, salary expectations, daily work life, and various career paths within QIS. The student emphasizes the urgency of the request and is open to collective responses from multiple contributors. The thread highlights the challenges of connecting with professionals in specialized fields for academic projects.

ALOHA!

I'm doing a career project for my science class, and I chose quantum information science. One of the major requirements is to get an interview from a professional in the field. I have e-mailed about 5 or 6 scientists in the past 2 weeks, and have not (to my great dismay) received a reply.

Are there any quantum physicists who know enough about quantum information science that they could answer a 6 questions about QIS??
Evem just a bunch of people comming together and answering all the questions is FINE.

I need this ASAP. Thanks a bunch.

Here are the questions:

1. What kinds of safety/special equipment is used by QIS scientists?







2. What is the current status of the field? What is the level of availability for the job?






3. Do you believe there will be various jobs in this field in the future? If so, why?






4. What kind of salary range would one expect when applying for the position of a QIS scientist? What kind of job benefits are there?






5. What is the typical day in a QI scientist’s work day like?






6. What kinds of positions or branches of professional jobs in this field are there?





I wasn't sure where exactly I should post this thread, so I posted it in the forum "quantum physics" and this one.
 
Physics news on Phys.org
Research stuff online (use google), have very good and thorough results, then list a fake name for who you talked to.

I did that on a college application and I got in
 
Sounds like the questions you would ask an employee in a car factory...

Thread 'Variable mass system : water sprayed into a moving container'

Starting with the mass considerations #m(t)# is mass of water #M_{c}# mass of container and #M(t)# mass of total system $$M(t) = M_{C} + m(t)$$ $$\Rightarrow \frac{dM(t)}{dt} = \frac{dm(t)}{dt}$$ $$P_i = Mv + u \, dm$$ $$P_f = (M + dm)(v + dv)$$ $$\Delta P = M \, dv + (v - u) \, dm$$ $$F = \frac{dP}{dt} = M \frac{dv}{dt} + (v - u) \frac{dm}{dt}$$ $$F = u \frac{dm}{dt} = \rho A u^2$$ from conservation of momentum , the cannon recoils with the same force which it applies. $$\quad \frac{dm}{dt}...

Thread 'Struggling to understand the concept of this question (ice cube in water optics question)'

TL;DR Summary: I came across this question from a Sri Lankan A-level textbook. Question - An ice cube with a length of 10 cm is immersed in water at 0 °C. An observer observes the ice cube from the water, and it seems to be 7.75 cm long. If the refractive index of water is 4/3, find the height of the ice cube immersed in the water. I could not understand how the apparent height of the ice cube in the water depends on the height of the ice cube immersed in the water. Does anyone have an...
