Are you excited about giving a second life to a vintage but invaluable set of data, which has the potential to significantly enhance the quality of the preparation studies for the next flagship collider at CERN, the Future Circular Collider?
The LEP project aims at migrating the data collected and LEP in the 1990s, and the corresponding Monte Carlo simulated events, to a new common format developed for the next generation of HEP experiments. This would enable the use of the tools under development for the electron-positron collision phase of FCC, to be tested on real data.
At the same time, theFAIR ness of the data sample would be enhanced by improving on Accessibility and Interoperability, mitigating the risk of losing access to the data.
We are looking for a motivated particle physicist with software skills to continue the feasibility work prototyped so far using the ALEPH data. You will work as a member of the CERN EP-FCC group, in close contact with the Key4HEP team of the CERN EP-SFT group, the members of the DPHEP collaboration, and international teams at Brown University and MIT.
Be sure to meet the eligibility criteria
- You are a national of aCERN Member State or Associate Member State . Currently, we cannot consider applications from Pakistani and Lithuanian nationals for positions with a 2026 start date, as the ceiling defined under Article II.5 of the Associate Membership Agreement has been reached.
