Postdoc: highly charged ion clock for ultralight dark matter

Deutsches Elektronen-Synchrotron (DESY)

Apply for this job

Together with the Centre for Quantum Technology and Applications (CQTA), DESY Zeuthen is taking a leading role in applying quantum technology to challenges in particle and astroparticle physics.

A new search for the effects of ultralight dark matter is being constructed, using ultra-sensitive optical atomic clocks as the sensing element. The post holder will contribute to this search, driving the development of a highly charged ion clock together with MPIK in Heidelberg. The post holder will participate in the assembly of the clock, beamline and trap, and contribute to the test for variations in the fine structure constant alpha.

How to apply

Please arrange for three letters of reference to be sent to the DESY human resource department by using our online tool. We look forward to receiving your application via our application portal linked here: https://v22.desy.de/e67416/records195097/index_eng.html
