PhD Research Fellow in Experimental Particle Physics
4 months ago
The research work is related to the ATLAS experiment at CERN and is to be performed within the ATLAS group at the Department. Currently the group is involved in searches for supersymmetry and other signatures of Dark Matter as well as studies of the CP properties of the Higgs boson. The group focuses on final states containing several tau-leptons. Furthermore, the group takes part in ATLAS upgrade, with participation in the ITk-Pixels project, with responsibilities concerning testing and delivery of pixel modules for the ITk.
The selected candidate is expected to take part in physics analysis of ATLAS data, for instance searching for the Higgs boson in decays to two tau-leptons and a photon or study the Higgs decaying to a Z-boson and a photon, a decay mode that is sensitive to the CP properties of the Higgs. To optimise the signal selection, it is foreseen that selection procedures involving Machine Learning algorithms will play a crucial role. The candidate will also take part in the ITk project, in particular concerning the testing and quality assurance of silicon pixel modules.
