Development of Particle Detectors for Neutron and Muon Beamlines Industrial Placement Opportunity
2 weeks ago
We are seeking two students to join our Detector Systems Group for an industrial placement in the development of particle detectors for neutron and muon beamlines. As a member of our team, you will contribute to the design, construction, and evaluation of detectors for our next-generation neutron and muon instruments.
Key Responsibilities- Investigate methods to produce detectors with the required performance and at an acceptable cost.
- Design and construct prototype detectors, experimentally determine their characteristics, and optimize the design.
- Evaluate the performance of prototypes in their ultimate environment using beam time on an ISIS instrument.
- Currently enrolled on an undergraduate degree course and returning to university/studies to complete your undergraduate degree following the placement.
- Required or have requested to take an industrial placement year.
- Have the right to live and work in the UK for the duration of the placement.
- Able to commence employment in summer 2025.
- Studying for a degree in physics or another physics-related degree.
- Ability to work independently and engage in self-motivated learning.
- Enjoy problem-solving and pursuing an experimental development program.
- Able to analyze data and draw conclusions.
- Demonstrate scientific computing-related skills.
- Have good communication skills, both verbal and written.
- Be willing to work with ionizing radiation.
UK Research and Innovation (UKRI) is an organization that brings together the seven disciplinary research councils, Research England, and Innovate UK. We build an independent organization with a strong voice and vision, ensuring the UK maintains its world-leading position in research and innovation.
Benefits- Defined benefit pension scheme.
- Excellent holiday entitlement.
- Access to employee shopping/travel discounts.
- Salary sacrifice cycle to work scheme.
