Doctoral Position in High Intensity Electron Sources for Future Accelerators

Our research group, based at the Paul Scherrer Institute (PSI), explores new technologies for future accelerator facilities. Through the development of new technologies and techniques, we develop high intensity particle sources, high gradient particle accelerators and beam diagnostics systems that measure beam qualities down to the sub-femtosecond regime. Our research combines beam/plasma physics, unique RF technologies and high-power lasers to realise the accelerators that exist within the Paul Scherrer Institute and reaching beyond with contributions to CERN’s future circular collider (FCC).
