Abingdon, United Kingdom Tokamak Energy Full time

**Company Background**

What if there was a limitless, safe, clean, low-cost energy source, providing much needed global energy security? What if that energy source could also help reduce climate change? We believe that’s fusion energy. Tokamak Energy is a leading global commercial fusion energy company based near Oxford, UK. We have an unrivalled track record designing and operating spherical tokamaks; the optimal route to commercial fusion energy.

In addition to fusion energy, Tokamak Energy is recognised as the leader in High Temperature Superconductor (HTS) magnet, design, numerical modelling, and prototyping. Our dedicated HTS magnet team, in collaboration with key manufacturing partners, is focussed on becoming the leading supplier of HTS magnets to multiple markets.

**Tokamak Energy are pleased to be offering opportunities through the UKAEA fusion industry summer placements for 8 weeks. To learn more about the programme, please visit**:UKAEA Fusion Industry Programme**.**

**About the opportunity: Evaluating Neutron Response in Diagnostics and Shielding through Monte Carlo Methods**

The proposed project aims to assess the neutron response within diagnostics and determine the associated shielding requirements using Monte Carlo methods.

This research endeavours to comprehensively understand how diagnostic tools respond to neutron interactions and to identify optimal shielding measures for mitigating potential effects. Throughout this placement, the student will delve into Monte Carlo simulations, a fundamental computational technique widely used in nuclear science and engineering. The student will acquire hands-on experience in modelling neutron interactions, gaining proficiency in software tools essential for conducting these simulations. Furthermore, the placement will foster critical thinking and problem-solving skills as the student navigates through complex data analysis, interprets results, and contributes to the formulation of effective shielding strategies within the context of nuclear science.

**Requirements**:

- Studying a relevant Degree or Masters
- Motivated and enthusiastic with ability to work independently
- Good communication skills with ability to work collaboratively with team members
- Good planning and organisation skills

**Benefits**
- 25 days holiday pro-rata (plus bank holidays) per annum
