Your responsibilities

• Contribute to the conceptual design phase of the study, supporting the development and assessment of the collider design.
• Propose optimisations of the linear and nonlinear beam optics of the collider, including tune scans and multi-objective optimisation of the dynamic aperture, as well as optimising collider parameters to maximise machine performance and operational robustness.
• Perform particle tracking studies for the collider across its operating energy range, including the effects of beam-beam interactions, synchrotron radiation, and beam impedance.
• Investigate key accelerator physics challenges for the collider, drawing on experience from the FCC-ee study.

Be sure to meet the eligibility criteria

• You are a national of a CERN Member State or Associate Member State. Currently, we cannot consider applications from Pakistani, Lithuanian, Latvian, Cypriot and Croatian nationals, as the ceiling defined under Article II.5 of the Associate Membership Agreement has been reached.
• By the application deadline, you have a master’s degree with 2 to 6 years of professional experience since graduation or a PhD with a maximum of 3 years of professional experience since graduation. You are not eligible with only a bachelor’s degree.
• You have never had a CERN fellow or graduate contract before.
• Please pay attention to the additional criteria and requirements for this specific position and mentioned above.
