Field of Interest:hep-ex
Experiments:CERN-LHC-ATLAS
Deadline: 2017-12-22
Region: Europe
Job description:
PhD proposition
The “Laboratoire de l’Accélérateur Linéaire” (LAL) in Paris-France region invites applications for a PhD student with the title
The ATLAS group of LAL has made significant contributions to the construction and operation of the experiment. It is presently contributing to event reconstruction (electrons, jets), Higgs studies, searches for new physics, SM precisions measurements, as well as the High Luminosity (HL)-LHC upgrade, with activities in the upgrades of the tracker and the high granular timing detector.
The selected candidate will work on two main topics
- Hardware: participation in the construction of the ATLAS tracker in view of the HL-LHC upgrade.
- Physics analysis: measurement of the Quartic Gauge Coupling in Vector Boson Scattering with ATLAS detector using the full LHC Run-2 data (120-150 fb-1).
The post has duration of 3 years with a nominal starting date in September 2018. Nevertheless, an internship period (non-mandatory) of 6 months is advised starting in March 2018. The doctoral requirements include research studies leading to the preparation and defense of a thesis, as well as a number of publications. The post provides adequate financial support.
Interested candidates should have (or soon receive) the equivalent of a Master degree with a specialization in Particle Physics or related activities as well as outstanding grades. To apply please send a CV, grades record, a motivation statement and up to three reference letters to Dimitris.Varouchas@cern.ch.
Applications should be sent by 22 December.
