Applied Physicist - Collective Effects with Muons (BE-ABP-CEI-2025-38-GRAP)
Published 7 March 2025 Closing Date 4 May 2025 Workplace Geneva, Lake Geneva region, Switzerland CategoryPhysics
Position Regular Employment / Collaborator
Job Description
Your responsibilitiesAre you eager to work at the forefront of high-energy physics and tackle the key challenges of future muon colliders? Join the Accelerator and Beam Physics group and become a part of the International Muon Collider Collaboration (IMCC) . Contribute to the research on collective effects during ionisation cooling and rapid acceleration--two crucial phases in delivering high-brightness muon beams.
As an Applied Physicist in this exciting field, you will:
- Analyse beam loading effects and their impact on the design of the ionisation cooling cell.
- Investigate collective instabilities that could limit beam quality during cooling and acceleration.
- Study the low-energy acceleration phase (0.2-60 GeV) in pre-accelerators and Recirculating Linear Accelerators (RLAs).
- Perform start-to-end simulations, connecting the cooling phase to beam collisions.
- Identify performance limitations arising from collective effects and propose mitigation strategies.
- Collaborate with international experts in the IMCC to advance muon collider technology.
Your profile
Skills
- Knowledge of Beam dynamics.
- Knowledge of collective effects.
- Knowledge of beam tracking in rings.
- 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 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.

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 http://home.cern.
