Description of the research topic:

Since the 70-ies, the gaseous particle detectors are mandatory elements of the large high energy physics detector systems. With the advent of the microstructure detectors, as well as cheap and high performance electronics, the developments took a new pace in the last two decades, allowing higher rate capability and radiation tolerance. The purpose of the research within the scope of the present PhD project is generic development, diagnostic methodology and understanding the fundamental gaseous processes in these systems. Modern technologies, such as high density circuit production and 3D printing, can improve both the new and the classical structures. A relevant application of tracking detectors is cosmic particle imaging. The doctoral research is expected to contribute to the Muon ID system of the ALICE-3 detector at CERN, which is a frontier relativistic heavy ion collider experiment, expected to start around 2030.

Required language skills: English
Further requirements: 
Extensive knowledge of the field of experimental particle physics (interaction of radiation and matter, detector operation), informatics basic knowledge, measurement technologies, English proficiency for ability of presentations and discussions.

Number of students who can be accepted: 1

Deadline for application: 2024-05-31
