6 -This project will explore new ways to communicate IGFAE’s strategic research areas—particle/astroparticle/nuclear physics, as well as Quantum IST, to young audiences. The goal will be to analyse the science communication & outreach on video formats, with some case studies (e.g. CERN, Fermilab, DESY, IFT, among others) to identify which formats, narrative structures and resources are more effective to communicate physics in an engaging way, whilst maintaining academic rigour.
6 +We are building the first quantum simulator based on ultracold atoms in Galicia. The platform will use ultracold dysprosium gases to perform quantum simulation of strongly correlated matter. Achieving this goal requires precise control of magnetic fields for laser cooling, trapping, and manipulation of atomic interactions.
7 +This project focuses on the development of magnetic field setup and PID-based current stabilization electronics for this new experimental platform.

8 -This analysis will be compared with the IGFAE’s social media activity, with the aim of proposing new ideas & approaches to help improve the Institute’s outreach activities in this area, in line with the 2025–2030 Communication Plan.
9 +The student will be involved in:
10 +
11 +* Designing and characterizing PID feedback systems for precise current and magnetic field control.
12 +* Constructing and testing magnetic field coils and associated electronics for laser cooling and trapping of dysprosium atoms.
13 +* Measuring magnetic field stability, homogeneity, and overall system performance.
14 +* Participating in scientific discussions within an international research team.
15 +
16 +This work will contribute directly to the construction of Galicia’s first cold-atom quantum simulator and provide hands-on experience in experimental quantum technologies, atomic physics, and advanced instrumentation.
