欧洲光束线研究中心招收远紫外线和x射线光学方向博士后

The ELI (Extreme Light Infrastructure) Project is an integral part of the European plan to build the next generation of large research facilities. ELI-Beamlines as a cutting edge laser facility is currently being constructed in Prague, Czech Republic; its commissioning is scheduled for end of 2017. ELI will be delivering ultra-short, ultra-intense laser pulses lasting typically a few tens of femtoseconds (100 fs) with peak power projected to reach 10 PW. It will make available time synchronized laser beams over a wide range of intensities for multi-disciplinary applications in physics, medicine, biology, material science etc. The high laser electric field intensities of the laser pulse will be also used for generating secondary sources of e- and p+ and high-energy photons.

The research group RP2 (X-ray sources) is expanding and recruiting physicists in relevant fields for the design/development of the facility and for preparation of future experimental activities.

In our team we therefore have the following position available:

POSTDOC – XUV and X-ray optics

The candidate is supposed to work predominantly on the following topics:

• Development of XUV and X-ray beamlines for user oriented research.
• Development of diagnostics for secondary sources of XUV and X-ray radiation.
• Participation on implementation and verification of beamlines at ELI Beamlines facility.
• Participation on experiments using 25TW laser system at PALS (Prague).

Requirements:

• PhD in physics or related field.
• Experience in XUV and X-ray optics.
• Experience in beam simulation tools (raytracing, physical optics)
• Good knowledge of spoken and written English is necessary

Job conditions:

• The opportunity to participate in this unique scientific project
• Career growth, professional education
• Competitive and motivating salary
• 5 weeks of holiday and other employee benefits
