Job description

Offer DescriptionThe fellow will participate in fully characterizing the PIPERADE double Penning trap, which will be installed in 1-2 years at DESIR/GANIL. The work will mainly focus on the development of the control system of the PIPERADE setup. The fellow will also participate in the mass measurement tests in the second trap, i.e. systematic studies of the TOF-ICR technique, as well as first mass measurements with the PI-ICR technique.The fellow will integrate the Exotic Nuclei group of LP2iB and will also be given the opportunity to participate in the experiments the group carries out on various facilities (JYFL, GANIL, ISOLDE…) with on-line high-precision mass measurements, exotic decays studies (2p radioactivity, β delayed proton emission, …) or weak interaction studies with nuclear β decay.

LP2iB is involved in different technical developments for the DESIR facility. One of these developments is the construction and commissioning of the PIPERADE (PIèges de PEnning pour les RAdionucléides à DESIR) setup. The PIPERADE traps will act as a mass separator to deliver large highly-pure ion samples to the setups of DESIR (such as tape stations for trap-assisted decay spectroscopy), or as a mass spectrometer. Mass measurements will allow investigating the nuclear structure far from stability, to constrain the stellar nucleosynthesis models as well as to study the weak interaction.Where to apply WebsiteRequirementsResearch Field Physics Education Level PhD or equivalentLanguages FRENCH Level BasicResearch Field Physics Years of Research Experience 1 – 4Additional InformationEligibility criteriaCandidates should have completed a PhD in Nuclear Physics or a related subject since less than 2 years.
