- InstitutionFaculty of Mathematics, Informatics and Natural Sciences, Department of Physics, Department of Mathematics, Cluster of Excellence “Quantum Universe”
Salary levelEGR. 13 TV-L
Start dateas soon as possible, fixed for a period of three years (This is a fixed-term contract in accordance with Section 2 of the academic fixed-term labor contract act [Wissenschaftszeitvertragsgesetz, WissZeitVG]).
Application deadline13.06.2024
Scope of workpart-time
Weekly hours66,67 % of standard work hours per week**Responsibilities**:
Duties include academic services in the project named above. Research associates may also pursue independent research and further academic qualifications.

The Cluster of Excellence “Quantum Universe” performs research to understand mass and gravity at the interface between quantum physics and cosmology. The research team includes leading scientists from mathematics, particle physics, astrophysics, and cosmology at Universität Hamburg and DESY.

You will be part of a novel research project which aims to detect gravitational waves with superconducting radio-frequency cavities. You will participate in the testing and characterization of a prototype superconducting RF cavity and learn to perform various tests and subsequent analysis on your own. The test results of the prototype tests and the theoretical development will be used to design a new, improved superconducting RF cavity for a frequency range of interest, for which you will be prepare its first commissioning.

Doctoral research associates will become members of the Quantum Universe Research School (QURS), which provides academic and soft skills training, as well as career planning support. In addition, they will receive individual budgets to facilitate the attendance of summer schools and conferences, and to support other educational measures. Additional travel money for project-specific duties will be provided by the hosting research groups. Doctoral research associates may participate in teaching at the University and in the organization of the Cluster via an early career council.

**Profile**:
A university degree in a relevant field.

Experience in one of those fields are beneficial but not necessary: Superconductivity, RF electronics/testing, Cryogenics

Good writing and communication skills and the ability to work in an international team with English as a working language.

We offer
- Reliable remuneration based on wage agreements
- Continuing education opportunities
- University pensions
- Attractive location
- Flexible working hours
- Work-life balance opportunities
