As an Applied Physicist, you’ll join the Superconducting RF Cavity Technology (SRF) Section of the Radio Frequency (RF) Group within the Accelerator Systems (SY) Department. This section is responsible for the design, maintenance, and upgrading of superconducting RF cavity systems in CERN accelerators. You will join a small team engaged in the research and development of superconducting RF materials with the aim to improve the performance of superconducting thin films deposited on copper for SRF applications. This is particularly important for the design and development for the Future Circular Collider (FCC).
