Are you an Accelerator Physicist or Engineer with expertise in beam dynamics and beam collimation? Do you want to contribute to the optimisation of the CERN accelerator complex—from today’s Large Hadron Collider (LHC) to its High-Luminosity upgrade (HL-LHC) and ambitious future projects? Join a truly international team working at the forefront of science, enabling the delivery of particle beams that power discoveries made by researchers worldwide.

You will join:

• The Accelerators and Beam Physics (ABP) group in CERN’s Beams Department, responsible for beam performance across the entire accelerator chain. The group leads beam dynamics studies on the LHC and its injectors, and R&D for future accelerators such as CLIC, FCC, Muon Collider, and novel acceleration concepts like AWAKE.
• The Non-linear Beam Dynamics and Collimation (NDC) Section develops theoretical, numerical, and experimental studies of beam collimation and linear and non-linear beam dynamics. The section addresses beam loss management, its impact to performance and finding mitigations, e.g. through beam collimation by building predictive models for proton, ion, and lepton beams. These studies are crucial to operate safely and efficiently accelerators at the high-intensity frontier, as well as to optimise background conditions for experiments of present and future colliders.
