PhD Student - Gaseous detectors for neutrino Physics

Job Summary

We are currently accepting applications for the above mentioned position. This is a unique opportunity for highly motivated students recently graduated from the University in Physics or related fields to gain research experience in one of DIPC’s high-profile research teams.

Job Description

The observation of the neutrino-nucleus coherent process on the last years have opened a new window to observe and understand neutrinos and their interactions.

At the DIPC we are building a series of detectors aiming to detect this neutrino process on different sources. In particular, the GanESS project is designing a new gaseous detector to be installed in neutron spallation sources that will be sensitive to such process. The GanESS detector, that can operate with different noble gases such as xenon or argon, could produce the first measurement not limited by statistics of this process for these nuclei.
