Description
You will design and optimize particle accelerator systems and beamlines for muon production in fusion technology, developing simulation models and collaborating cross-functionally. Your work will help move the technology from laboratory to commercial energy source, contributing to clean energy solutions.
Requirements
- PhD in Physics, Electrical Engineering, or a related field, preferably with a focus on accelerator physics
- Strong understanding of beam dynamics and accelerator systems
- Demonstrated understanding of accelerator physics principles for beamlines, synchrotrons, and storage rings, including the theory of polarized beams
- Experience with particle accelerator simulation tools
- Track record of working successfully with other scientists and engineers to solve complex technical challenges
- Excellent analytical and problem-solving abilities
- Strong communication and collaboration skills, and ability to work in a fast-paced team
Responsibilities
- Design and optimize particle accelerator systems and beamlines for muon production
- Develop simulation models of accelerators and beams to analyze beam dynamics and particle interactions
- Collaborate cross-functionally to integrate accelerator designs into our fusion system
- Contribute to experimental planning and data analysis
- Help establish technical specifications for system components
- Author technical papers and contribute to the company's scientific publications, presenting research at scientific conferences
