Mer information
DESY expands its research on novel laser-plasma accelerators (LPAs) for future applications in health, photon science, and particle physics. At the core of these activities is the development of a plasma-based injector for the synchrotron light source PETRA IV. In this context, we are searching for a highly-motivated scientist to develop an energy compression beamline for the future PETRA IV plasma injector. More information about PETRA IV: PETRA IV
About your role:
- Contribute to the development of the plasma injector
- Review the concept and design of the current x-band based dechirper
- Work with other DESY groups, suppliers, and other labs to obtain and test x-band hardware
- Perform a feasibility study; revise the design if necessary or suggest different RF technology basis
- Build a prototype energy compressor for GeV class LPA electron beams
