Job Description:

Your responsibilities


The Accelerators and Beam Physics Group within the Beams Department (BE) is responsible for studying and understanding the beam dynamics over the complete CERN Accelerator Complex through theoretical, simulation and experimental studies.


In the position of Applied Physicist for Ion Beam Development you will dedicate your work to the ion source, which delivers primary ions for the CERN accelerator chain.

Up to now mainly lead ions were delivered to the experiments. Future experiments are requesting now also lighter elements.

You will:

  • Study the production of lighter elements at the source level, including the choice of the material (based on operational and safety aspects), the operational source parameters, source extraction simulations, stability and reliability studies;
  • Improve the general reliability and simplify the ongoing operation
  • Participate in the operation of the source.

Your profile
Skills and/or knowledge

  • Experience in ion tracking simulations with space charge;
  • Experience in optical spectroscopy;
  • Knowledge of ion production in plasmas;
  • Knowledge of materials used in sources;
  • Fluent in English, the ability to work in French would be an advantage.

Eligibility criteria:

  • You are a national of a CERN Member or Associate Member State.
  • You have a professional background in Physique (or a related field) and have either:

  • Master's degree with 2 to 6 years of post-graduation professional experience;
