As an Applied Physicist in this exciting field, you will: Investigate collective effects that may impact ionisation cooling and the generation of high-brightness muon beams. Study beam interactions with electromagnetic wake fields in absorbers, gas-filled RF cavities, and other materials. Analyze the effects of ionisation-induced charge pairs and their impact on beam stability. Develop theoretical models and simulations to explore instabilities in the cooling process. Collaborate with leading experts in the IMCC, contributing to the future of muon collider technology. Your profile Skills Knowledge of Beam dynamics. Knowledge of collective effects. Knowledge of particle-matter interaction. Knowledge of electromagnetic fields. Fluent in English; the ability to work in French would be an advantage. You have a professional background in Accelerator physics, muon colliders (or a related field) and have either:a Master's degree with 2 to 6 years of post-graduation professional experience; or a PhD with no more than 3 years of post-graduation professional experience. You have never had a CERN fellow or graduate contract before. Additional Information Contract duration: 24 months, with a possible extension up to 36 months maximum. Working hours: 40 hours per week Job reference: BE-ABP-CEI-2025-36-GRAP Field of work: Applied Physics What we offer A monthly stipend ranging between 6287 and 6911 Swiss Francs per month (net of tax). Coverage by CERN's comprehensive health scheme (for yourself, your spouse and children), and membership of the CERN Pension Fund . Depending on your individual circumstances: installation grant; family, child and infant allowances; payment of travel expenses at the beginning and end of contract. 30 days of paid leave per year . On-the-job and formal training at CERN as well as in-house language courses for English and/or French. About us At CERN, the European Organization for Nuclear Research, physicists and engineers are probing the fundamental structure of the universe. Using the world's largest and most complex scientific instruments, they study the basic constituents of matter - fundamental particles that are made to collide together at close to the speed of light. The process gives physicists clues about how particles interact and provides insights into the fundamental laws of nature. Find out more on. We are on a Quest. A Journey into discovery like no other. Bring your expertise to our unique work and develop your knowledge and skills at pace. Join world-class subject matter experts on unique projects, in a Quest for greater knowledge and deeper understanding. Begin your CERN Quest. Take Part Diversity has been an integral part of CERN's mission since its foundation and is an established value of the Organization.
