Seven (07) PhD: Lattice Gauge Theory, EuroPLEx

Seven (07) PhD positions in Lattice Gauge Theory at the European network for Particle physics, Lattice field theory and Extreme computing (EuroPLEx) under the H2020 / Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions

RESEARCH FIELD: Physics

RESEARCHER PROFILE: First Stage Researcher (R1)

DEADLINE: 31/03/2019

HOURS PER WEEK: 35

MARIE CURIE GRANT AGREEMENT NUMBER: 813942

Overview

Seven (07) PhD positions are available in Lattice Field Theory as part of the EuroPLEx network (europlex.unipr.it).

The postgraduate fellowships are funded by the European Union H2020 program through the European network for Particle physics, Lattice field theory and Extreme computing (EuroPLEx), a recently approved Marie Skłodowska-Curie Innovative Training Network (MSCA-ITN).

The Europlex network involves leading European Lattice Field Theory groups based at following institutions:

  1. (Denmark) Syddansk University,
  2. (Germany) University of Bielefeld, University of Regensburg, Humboldt University Berlin,
  3. (Ireland) Trinity College Dublin,
  4. (Italy) University of Parma,
  5. (Spain) Autonomous University Madrid (UAM),
  6. (UK) University of Edinburgh and Swansea University.

The research performed within the network aims to

  1. Perform precision tests of the Standard Model.
  2. Investigate Beyond the Standard Model candidate theories.
  3. Probe the QCD phase diagram.
  4. Non-perturbatively study theoretical aspects of Quantum Field Theories.

The research provides a solid training in the analytical skills needed in quantum field theory and in particle physics phenomenology, as well as in high performance computing and in software development.

Funding: The fellowships are funded for up to three years with a salary corresponding to an early stage researcher (ESR) position with the gross monthly living allowance of 3,270 EUR per month modified by the EU correction coefficient for the country of recruitment. In addition, a mobility allowance of 600 EUR per month will be paid, and, depending on marital status, possibly another 500 EUR per month of family allowance. The ESR salary is subject to local tax, social benefit and other deductions which differ widely between countries and may be substantial (above 40%).

Requirements

  1. Candidates are expected to have a very good Masters degree in Physics or related areas at the time of the commencement of employment.
  2. They must be eligible under the H2020 ITN mobility rules, specifically, the researcher cannot have resided or carried out his/her main activity (work, studies, etc.) in the country of the recruiting institution for more than 12 months in the three years immediately before the recruitment date (see the H2020 guide for applicants).

Application Procedure: Please direct informal enquiries or your complete application (CV, description of research interests and, if applicable, list of publications) by e-mail to europlex@fis.unipr.it. Candidates should arrange to have 2 letters of recommendation sent to the same address. If the candidate wants to be considered for a position at

more than one institution, he/she should order the institutions by preference.

The receipt of each application will be acknowledged via email by the EuroPLEx recruitment team.
