Purposes are invited from proficient and inventive college students for a PhD place in Experimental Particle Physics to affix the Sussex group engaged on the SNO+ experiment below the supervision of Dr Elisabeth Falk. SNO+ affords a wealthy programme of neutrino physics, which incorporates neutrinoless double beta decay, antineutrinos from reactors and geothermal exercise, photo voltaic neutrinos and a supernova watch. It’s situated at SNOLAB, 2 km underground within the Creighton mine in Canada. The experiment is taking physics knowledge with the liquid-scintillator detector, with preparations for the introduction of the double beta decay isotope underway.
You’ll be a part of the Sussex group in engaged on the evaluation of antineutrinos from close by nuclear reactors. The main target might be on an oscillation measurement that’s anticipated to surpass the present world-leading outcome for the so-called photo voltaic mass splitting throughout the period of the studentship. Additionally, you will contribute to the calibration of the experiment and to knowledge high quality assurance, in addition to collaborating in SNO+ experimental operations. You’ll have the chance to spend an prolonged time period at SNOLAB.
House and Abroad college students are eligible to use.
