Grade UE07: £39,347 to £46,974 per annum.
School of Physics and Astronomy / Institute for Particle and Nuclear Physics / CSE
Full time: 35 hours per week.
Fixed Term: For 39 months.
The Opportunity:
The international XLZD consortium is developing a next-generation rare event observatory based on the world-leading liquid xenon technology. The experiment will search for electro-weak-scale particle dark matter and enable world-class sensitivity to other rare physics processes such as neutrinoless double-beta decay and astrophysical neutrino interactions. Building on expertise from the world-leading LZ detector, our group has strategic leadership in the Outer Detector for the UK XLZD project, which aims to bring the experiment to the UK’s Boulby Underground Laboratory. This position is a combination of essential simulation and design studies with hardware and prototyping work, and you will join a growing and vibrant dark matter group consisting of two academics, three PDRAs and four PhD students.
The School of Physics and Astronomy at the University of Edinburgh is committed to encouraging equality and diversity among our workforce, and eliminating discrimination. The School strives to create a more diverse, equitable and inclusive workplace for all and we are looking to actively diversify our staff. We welcome applications from all qualified candidates and in particular encourage applications from people of colour, women, people with disabilities, LGBTQ+ people and other minority and under-represented groups. We aim to ensure that our culture and systems support flexible and family-friendly working, as evidenced by our Juno Champion and Athena SWAN Silver awards.
Your skills and attributes for success:
Possess, or be about to obtain, a PhD in Experimental Particle Physics Proven track record of performing high quality research in Experimental Particle Physics Good working knowledge of C++ and/or Python programming languages Ability to self-motivate and work independently Ability to work as part of a team while showing leadership and initiative-
