This position is based at Culham, Oxfordshire, and requires employees to complete an online Baseline Personnel Security Standard (BPSS) including The Disclosure & Barring Service (DBS) checks for criminal convictions.
The Job
We are seeking a highly skilled Disruption Control Physicist to contribute to the development of disruption detection methods with adequate fidelity to allow disruption avoidance methods to function.
As part of a team, you will develop models describing the physical processes in the various disruption paths, including working closely with those making 3D nonlinear simulations of disruptions, and developing real-time tools for disruption avoidance, with the aim of testing these on present experiments.
Key Responsibilities:
- Contribute to the development of disruption detection methods with adequate fidelity to allow the disruption avoidance methods to function.
- Participate in experiments on MAST-U to test real-time disruption avoidance for scenarios appropriate to the STEP device.
- For STEP study means to mitigate disruption consequences, including heat and EM loads, and runaway electrons.
- Contribute to refereed journal articles and attend international conferences on magnetic fusion as agreed with management.
- Be responsible for building a strong network of external collaborations.
Essential Requirements:
- PhD or equivalent level of experience in Physics or related area.
- Proficiency with programming languages, e.g., C, FORTRAN, IDL, Python.
- Proven ability to conduct independent physics research.
- Good oral and written communications skills.
- Excellent team-player with an outward facing work-ethos as he/she will work closely with scientists from around the world.
Desirable Requirements:
- Knowledge of real-time control methods.
- Proven ability to carry out detailed analysis of experimental and modelled data, use of suitable tools, error analysis, etc.
- Experience of considering safety as part of planning work.
- Strong record of publications in a closely related field.
