  Dr K Nikolopoulos  Applications accepted all year round  Competition Funded PhD Project (Students Worldwide)

About the Project

Searches for physics beyond the Standard Model in the Higgs sector with the ATLAS detector at the CERN Large Hadron Collider.
The project will involve analysis of large datasets recorded at the highest available centre-of-mass energy of 13 TeV, development of new and improved reconstruction methods of complex experimental signatures, and statistical interpretation of the results.
Travel to CERN will be required, with the possibility of an extended stay in Geneva during the studentship.

This project will take place within the Particle Physics group at the University. For details of the group and to find out more about studying for a PhD in this group, please refer to
