  马克斯普朗克物理研究所邀请申请

  博士后职位

  重点研究了未来大尺度中微子双β衰变(0β)实验的研发和对GERDA二期数据的分析。这个开口是col实验研究中心CRC 1258“天体和粒子物理学中微子和暗物质”的一部分。

  设计了基于锗的0β衰变实验,研究中微子的性质,并通过寻找76Ge的0β衰变来测试轻子数守恒。其目的是要么建立轻子数违规和中微子的马略安娜性质,要么将相关的排除限制推到中微子振荡所指示的中微子质量尺度上。

  对于一个吨级锗基0β衰变实验来说,进一步减少辐射背景对Gerdae实验是必不可少的,Gerdae实验是该领域目前世界领先的实验。闪烁聚合物PEN可以作为自否决结构材料应用于联想实验的第一阶段。使用这种材料可以显著提高背景识别的效率,从而提高0νβ衰变的灵敏度。

  成功的候选人有望在新材料的开发中占据主导地位,并应推动锗探测器与由自否决聚合物制成的环境的集成。候选人应积极参加儿童权利公约的联合活动。

  Postdoctoral position

  focused on R&D in connection with the future large scale neutrinoless double-beta decay (0νββ) experiment and analysis on GERDA phase II data. This opening is part of the Col-laborative Research Center CRC 1258 „Neutrinos and dark matter in astro and particle physics”.

  Germanium based 0νββ decay experiments are designed to investigate the nature of the neutrino and to test Lepton number conservation by searching for 0νββ decay of 76Ge. The goal is to either establish Lepton number violation and the Majorana nature of the neutrino or to push the relevant exclusion limits to the neutrino mass scale indicated by neutrino oscillations.

  For a ton scale germanium based 0νββ decay experiment it is indispensable to further reduce the background from radiation with respect to the GERDAexperiment, the cur-rently world leading experiment in this field. The scintillating polymer, PEN, could be used as self-vetoed structural material already in the first phase of LEGEND experiment. Use of this material could lead to a significant improvement of background recognition effi-ciency and hence sensitivity for 0νββ decay.

  The successful candidate is expected to take over a leading role in the development of the new material and should push forward the integration of germanium detectors into surroundings made from self-vetoed polymers. The candidate is expected to actively participate in joint activities of the CRC.

  Formal requirements for this position are a PhD in experimental physics.

  The candidate should have a background in (astro-)particle physics or detector physics. Experience in polymer research, low background physics and with HPGe diodes, and a good knowledge in programming with C++, Root and GEANT 4 are an advantage.

  Salary and benefits are commensurate with public service organizations (TVöD Bund). The contract is initially limited to 2 years. The Max Planck Society is an equal opportunity employer. The goal is to enhance the percentage of women where they are underrepre-sented. Women, therefore, are especially encouraged to apply. The Society is committed to employing more people with special needs. Applications of people with special needs are particularly welcome.

  Further information can be obtained from Dr. Béla Majorovits (bela@mppmu.mpg.de). Interested applicants should send an application letter including curriculum vitae, a statement of research interests, a list of main publications and arrange for three letters of support. Please send your complete written application by to ina@mpp.mpg.de.

  The Max Planck Institute for Physics collects and stores personal data that you send for your application. Further information on the data collected can be found at https://www.mpp.mpg.de/en/studying-and-working/jobs/data-protection-statement-for-job-applications/
