Job Description
Missions
As part of the activities of the LLR's "BioMedical" group, the candidate will be required to:
-Develop and implement an ultrathin beam monitor for CNAO, a proton and carbon therapy treatment center in Pavia, Italy.
- Develop and implement an ultrathin beam monitor for the BioALTO research beamline at IJCLab in Orsay, France.
- Characterize the properties of Secondary Electron Emission (SEE), the physical process used for the measurement signal.
Both monitors rely on secondary electron emission, but their implementation in very different contexts (particle types, energies, intensities) requires specific designs.
Activity
The candidate will be involved in the following tasks:
- Data analysis (essential task),
- On-site data collection (important task, team-based),
- Preparation of data collection equipment (hardware, online & offline hardware) and on-site installation (important task, team-based),
- Construction and assembly of detector components (important task, team-based),
- Detector design (important task, team-based).
Your Profil
Skills
- Teamwork
- Critical thinking and rigor
- Programming skills: Python, C, C++
- Knowledge of ionization mechanisms
- English language proficiency (spoken and written, B2 level)
- Ability to work independently
Your Work Environment
The Leprince-Ringuet Laboratory is a high-energy physics laboratory involved in accelerator experiments (e.g., CMS, LHCb at the LHC at CERN) and non-accelerator experiments (e.g., FERMI on satellites, HESS in Namibia, etc.).
The candidate will join the "BioMedical" team, which has been developing "PEPITES" monitors for charged particle beams for about ten years. These instruments are used in research beamlines and are also intended for therapeutic applications. These monitors are ultra-thin to avoid disturbing the beams. This primary property is of interest for developments at CNAO and BioALTO.
The BioMedical team is small, and collaboration is essential for its smooth operation. This team benefits from connections with numerous laboratories and teams (ARRONAX, Nantes; LOA, Palaiseau; LPICM, Palaiseau; BioALTO, Orsay; CNAO, Italy; CEA/DEPIP, Saclay...) which feed into its highly interdisciplinary theme.
