    Applied Physicist or Scientist on advanced Superconductors Job in , , Switzerland

    At CERN, the European Organization for Nuclear Research, physicists and engineers are probing the fundamental structure of the universe. They use the world's largest and most complex scientific instruments to study the basic constituents of matter, the fundamental particles. The particles are made to collide together at close to the speed of light. The process gives the physicists clues about how the particles interact, and provides insights into the fundamental laws of nature.

    Applied Physicist or Scientist on advanced Superconductors Job Description

    Technology Department (TE) in the Magnets, Superconductors and Cryostats Group (TE-MSC), for the Superconductor and Devices Section (SCD).
     
    You will join the Technology Department (TE) that is responsible for technologies which are specific to existing particle accelerators, facilities and future projects.

    More specifically you will integrate the Magnets, Superconductors and Cryostats (TE-MSC) Group which is responsible for: 

    • Superconducting materials, wires, tapes and cables for the CERN accelerator complex.
    • Superconducting devices, e.g. current leads and electrical transfer lines.
    • Laboratories for characterization of advanced superconducting materials.
     
    Functions
    As an Applied Physicist or Scientist on advanced Superconductors, you will join a team of scientists and technicians in the CERN TE-MSC-SCD Section, and work on the development, characterization and prototyping of superconductors, high-current superconducting cables and associated electrical devices.
     
    You will: 
    • Take responsibility for the characterization of superconducting materials, strands and cables at liquid helium temperature, including the definition of dedicated experiments on existing or new test installations, test program and analysis of test results.
    • Take responsibility for the design of test stations operated at liquid helium temperatures and conceive experiments for the measurement of structural, electrical, magnetic and mechanical properties of superconductors.
    • Participate in the activity of the superconductor laboratories, which includes performance of electrical measurements at cryogenic temperatures and design and construction of dedicated sample holders.
    • Report on design, manufacturing and test results, both in written form, and presentations, as required.
     
    The activity requires interacting with different teams and services at CERN, as well as external laboratories and industry.
