1 Marie Curie PhD position in Physics Applications of Negative Ions (PANIONS)

Welcome to the Marie Sklodowska-Curie Actions

As a recent graduate from university or advanced technical institute, you’re no doubt looking for the chance to make your mark. Here it is: we seek lively and inquiring minds with a heightened sense of curiosity to take part in projects of advanced development work, in a broad range of applied sciences and engineering fields.

Marie Sklodowska-Curie Actions train young researchers, building the careers of tomorrow’s leaders in research and industry.

What could be a better boost for your career than becoming an Early Career Stage Researcher in an Innovative Training Networks project within the framework of the prestigious Marie Sklodowska-Curie programs?

The chosen candidate will during the time at CERN work on ion beam developments and techniques for the production and characterization of radioactive anions for the ISOLDE facility (https://isolde.web.cern.ch). The holder will contribute to the development of techniques to efficiently produce negative ions from radioactive species at ISOLDE through work in the offline laboratory, and will also participate in online experiments for their characterization.

During the year at University of Gothenburg the student will join the Laser spectroscopy research  group” (https://www.physics.gu.se/ english / research / laser spectroscopy) led by professor Dag Hanstorp.  Here the holder of the position will take courses, get basic training in laser and ion beam technologies and participate in research on photodetachment of negative ions.
