Phd Student Position in Space Research
vor 5 Monaten
The Space Research and Planetology Division of the University of Bern is the leading planetary sciences institute in Switzerland and participates in numerous ESA and NASA missions. The Division has a long-standing tradition in space research starting from the solar wind sail placed on the Moon during the Apollo program, recent missions such as Rosetta to comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko, to ongoing and future projects including ESA's JUICE mission to the Jovian moons and CI to a yet to be defined target.
Responsibilities
The PhD curriculum contains both theoretical and lab work associated to the study of comets and spacecraft instrumentation. A key aspect is the characterization of CI/MANiaC and includes operation and testing of the different instrument models and subunits. Reference and calibration measurements of different gases in both static as well as dynamic mode (neutral gas and ion beams) will be carried out in the laboratory. Furthermore, the PhD student will also be involved in the analysis of data from the ROSINA mass spectrometer suite returned by the late Rosetta mission to comet 67P.
**Requirements**:
The position requires a Master of Science degree in physics or a closely related field in engineering. Experience in instrumentation, lab work, and programming languages are a clear advantage.
We offer
The salary will be determined according to SNSF regulations. Rules according to the University of Bern and Canton of Bern. Childcare allowance is available.
The Canton of Bern offers 25 days of vacation per year. Public holidays (e.g., Christmas, New Year, Easter, 1 August, etc.) come in addition.
