Jobbeschreibung

Overview

DESY, with more than 2900 employees at its two locations in Hamburg and Zeuthen, is one of the world's leading research centres. Its research focuses on decoding the structure and function of matter, from the smallest particles of the universe to the building blocks of life. In this way, DESY contributes to solving the major questions and urgent challenges facing science, society and industry. With its ultramodern research infrastructure, its interdisciplinary research platforms and its international networks, DESY offers a highly attractive working environment in the fields of science, technology and administration as well as for the education of highly qualified young scientists.

DESY looks back on a long tradition in synchrotron radiation experiment in a wide range of applications and has developed into one of the leading research centres worldwide. Serving for the high impact synchrotron radiation applications, the 3rd generation source PETRA III is available since 2009 as one of the most brilliant hard X-ray sources worldwide. Additionally, DESY has a strong background in developing new laser systems for various applications. In the IFuEL (Inertial Fusion Laser Development und HED-Analytics) project under the Fusion 2040 call of the BMFTR DESY has been contracted to develop a highly efficient YLF laser and test the laser by creating a Fusion relevant plasma in a H 2 /He jet to radiate Plasma Facing Materials (PFM) with changed particles originating from the plasma. For the development and commissioning of a target chamber that will house the interaction point for the plasma generation we are seeking an enthusiastic young scientist in the rank of a postdoctoral fellow.

Responsibilities

• Support the development and commissioning of a target chamber that will house the interaction point for plasma generation.
• Contribute to activities within the IFuEL project and the Fusion 2040 program related to laser development and plasma radiation studies.

Qualifications

• Enthusiastic young scientist in the rank of a postdoctoral fellow.
