Professor Jacob Dunningham

My research is focused on the study of quantum correlations and how they can be used in new technologies. I am particularly interested in quantum metrology and sensing schemes that have capabilities beyond anything possible with classical methods. Recent work of mine has included:

• Understanding the advantages of networks of quantum sensors [1]
• Developing a Bayesian approach to metrology when data is limited [2]
• Investigating quantum-enhanced multiparameter estimation schemes [3,4]
• Using Renyi entropy as a tool in analysing quantum systems [5]

 I am also interested in fundamental quantum issues such as:

• Nonlocality [6]
• Entanglement in relativistic systems [7]
• The quantum-classical divide [8,9]
