Mer information
We participate in leading roles in particle physics projects on our campus and at international laboratories such as CERN or KEK. We develop technologies for detectors and accelerators, and work on scientific computing. We operate important infrastructures such as a WLCG Tier-2 computing centre or the DESY test beam facility.
Interested applicants for a fellowship in experimental physics are requested to submit their application in English (letter of motivation, research interest, CV, list of publications, copies of university degrees, three letters of reference) via our application portal. The statement about the scientific interest has to include your specific motivation for one of the research projects mentioned below.
The decision on the awarding of a fellowship for the 2/2026 selection round will presumably be made by 30 November 2026. The fellowship at DESY in Hamburg is to be started during the first half of 2027.
About your role:
You are invited to take an active role in one of the following research projects in Hamburg:
- ATLAS ITk Strip Detector Upgrade, possibly in combination with a physics analysis
- CMS Outer Tracker Upgrade, possibly in combination with a physics analysis
- Scientific computing in the context of particle physics research activities at DESY
- Current and future on-site experiments
About you:
- PhD in Physics: Doctorate must be completed before starting the fellowship, but must not be older than 5 years
- Strong interest in particle physics research, detector development or scientific computing
- Expert knowledge and experience in the field of the selected project
