Competition Funded PhD Project (Students Worldwide)
About the Project
A position is open for an enthusiastic particle physics PhD student to conduct research at the energy frontier at the ATLAS experiment. The main topic is to investigate further the nature of electroweak symmetry breaking and to search for new physics phenomena using Higgs and diboson measurements. Precision measurements can also be combined to yield the best constraints on the electroweak Lagrangian describing the interaction between the W,Z and the Higgs bosons, which is directly related to the nature of the electroweak symmetry breaking.
This can yield stringent constraints on general new physics models. The PhD project will involve heavily data analysis, statistics, advanced analytical classification methods and possibly machine learning. The PhD will prepare equally well for a career in industry and academia.
