Job description:

The Helmholtz Institute Mainz (HIM) is an institutional cooperation of the Johannes Gutenberg-Universität Mainz and the GSI Helmholtz Centre for Heavy Ion Research GmbH in Darmstadt.

It links the academic world of a university with the scientific possibilities of an internationally renowned unique large-scale accelerator center for ions.

In the coming years the new international accelerator facility FAIR (Facility for Antiproton and Ion Research), one of the largest research projects worldwide, will be built in Darmstadt.

Postdoctoral Researcher Position in Mass Spectrometry (all genders)

Reference number:
**for a two-year contract starting at the earliest possible date.

The position is embedded in the project on Penning-trap mass spectrometry of actinides and transactinides at the GSI in Darmstadt within the SHIPTRAP project in cooperation with the Helmholtz Institute in Mainz.

The main goal of this activity is the investigation of the nuclear structure of the heaviest elements by mass spectrometry.

In addition, the project aims at the development and implementation of novel approaches in mass spectrometry with Penning traps and in combination with related techniques.

Your tasks:

- perform mass measurements of heavy radionuclides with SHIPTRAP,develop methods for mass spectrometry of actinides and transactinides,simulate and design experimental apparatus for ion manipulation, contributing in improving the performance of the SHIPTRAP setupparticipate in experiments for the investigation of actinides and transactinide carried out by the SHE physics section,analyze experimental data and prepare scientific publications,contribute to the supervision of Bachelor, Master, and Doctoral students

Your profile:

We expect
- a PhD in experimental nuclear physics or a similar field,sound experience in mass spectrometry and ion traps,experience in mass spectrometry of radionuclides at accelerator facilities,good communication skills in English (both verbal and written).Knowledge in software development for experiment control, simulation software and data analysis is desirable.

We offer a fixed-term 2-years postdoc position with the salary and benefits based on the Collective Agreement for the German Public Service (TVöD-Bund) effective at GSI.

Severely disabled persons are given preference when equally qualified.

Inquiries concerning the position can be sent to Prof. Dr. Michael Block

This research center is part of the Helmholtz Association of German Research Centers. With more than 42,000 employees and an annual budget of over € 5 billion, the Helmholtz Association is Germany's largest scientific organisation._

Company:

The Helmholtz Association contributes to solving major challenges to assure the future of our society.

With more than 39,000 people on staff in 18 national research centres, the Helmholtz Association is Germany's largest scientific organization.

The name Helmholtz stands for concerted research in which networks form the key principle behind inquiring thought and action. Concerted research is efficient and flexible.

The profile of the Helmholtz Association
The Helmholtz Association performs cutting-edge research which contributes substantially to solving the grand challenges of science, society and industry.

To succeed in meeting these responsibilities, Helmholtz concentrates its work in six research fields:
Energy, Earth and Environment, Health, Key Technologies, Matter, as well as Aeronautics, Space and Transport. Within each of these fields, research programs are developed by our scientists and regularly evaluated by renowned international experts. Their evaluation forms the basis for the programme-oriented funding that is allocated to Helmholtz research.

Within the six research fields, Helmholtz scientists cooperate with each other and with external partners - working across disciplinary, organizational and national borders.

Promoting young academics

Helmholtz scientists, a high-performance infrastructure and modern and efficient research management are the ingredients to the Helmholtz Association's success and global impact.

Promoting young researchers is a major priority for the Helmholtz Association. Its qualification
