Southampton, United Kingdom University of Southampton Full time

**2765324PN**

You will be part of a vibrant, multidisciplinary community of physicists, chemists, computer scientists, and biologists at Southampton, the RFI, and the CLF, working together to construct a new laser laboratory at the Rutherford Appleton Labs in Harwell, home of the most powerful femtosecond lasers in the UK, and of the Rosalind Franklin Institute (RFI), a new UK research institute with a focus in biological imaging using several complementary modalities and radiations. The lab will be based around a new generation of femtosecond laser sources which produce high energy femtosecond pulses in the infrared at average powers that are a factor of 100 higher than typical femtosecond lasers.

Your post will be based at the University of Southampton within its Optoelectronics Research Centre. You will develop and use computer simulations of ultrahigh-power laser pulse propagation in hollow waveguides and high-harmonic generation. Your simulations and modelling will contribute to the optimisation of the X-ray generation efficiency, ultimately creating a “digital twin” of the instrument being built at Harwell. Commitment to working with experimentalists to improve experimental design is important. You will also collaborate with teams at the RFI and the CLF who will develop ptychography software, which is the computational method of microscopic imaging at the heart of the system.

Join us and become part of our multidisciplinary project team which will provide you with experience in some of the most exciting areas of photonics and imaging science, together with strong support for career development**Further details**:
