ITN " HIDDeN ": 1 ESR position: Development and characterization of low temperature micro-calorimeters for neutrino physics

A new Marie Skłodowska-Curie Innovative Training Network (MSCA-ITN) funded by the European Union H2020 programme named HIDDeN ("Hunting Invisibles: Dark sectors, Dark matter and Neutrinos") officially started on October 1st, 2020.

3 years PhD position at Heidelberg University (1^st year funded through HIDDEN, 2^nd and 3^rd years other funding sources). The position is foreseen to start in January 2023. The deadline for applications is 20^th of November

Development and characterization of low temperature micro-calorimeters for neutrino physics

Objective: Development of detectors to be used in experiments for the determination of neutrino properties. The candidate will be part of a team of experts in detector fabrication and characterization and acquire the knowledge for optimizing detectors to be developed for application in experiments to determine the neutrino mass and nature.

Responsiblities:

• Perform research in a team of PhD students and young researchers
• Meet the members of the supervisory team on a regular basis
• Participate in the activities of the Network as specified in the Grant Agreement and/or required by the node coordinator, including secondments in other network nodes and taking part in the network meetings and in the training activities
• Write up the results of the research activity and present research papers and publications at meetings and conferences, as advised by the supervisors.
• Widen the personal knowledge in the research area and undertake complementary training.

All applications must be sent through the web page https://hiddeneu.eu/

The candidates must demonstrate a high level of accomplishment and excellence in her/his previous academic experience.

By EU requirements, eligible candidates may be of any nationality and at the date of recruitment (means the first day of the employment of the researcher for the purposes of the action) should comply with the following rules:

• All researchers recruited in an ITN must be Early-Stage Researchers (ESRs) at the date of recruitment by the beneficiary, be in the first four years (full-time equivalent research experience) of their research careers and have not been awarded a doctoral degree. This is measured from the date when you obtained the degree which would formally entitle you to embark on a doctorate, either in the country in which the degree was obtained or in the country of destination.
• Mobility Rule: researchers must not have resided or carried out their main activity (work, studies, etc.) in the country of the recruiting beneficiary for more than 12 months in the 3 years immediately before the recruitment date. Compulsory national service, short stays such as holidays, and time spent as part of a procedure for obtaining refugee status under the Geneva Convention (1951 Refugee Convention and the 1967 Protocol) are not taken into account.

The recruitment and working conditions for researchers will comply with the ARTICLE 32 — RECRUITMENT AND WORKING CONDITIONS FOR RESEARCHERS
