Research supervisor

Tagged neutron method
Nuclear fission (neutron induced and spontaneous)
Violation of fundamental symmetries (T- and P-violation in neutron-induced reactions)
Neutron lifetime

The applicant is expected to have at least basic knowledge of nuclear physics, data analysis and nuclear electronics. Specific requirements:

C/C++

ROOT

Monte Carlo Simulations, Specifically using GEANT4 Toolkit

Digitizers and Digital Data Processing

Participation in several research projects can be proposed for the student:

Using the TANGRA setup, consisting of an ING-27 tagged neutron generator and a set of gamma-ray and/or neutron detectors for elemental analysis and investigation of nuclear reactions.
Nuclear fission studies, including research on ternary/quaternary fission, T-odd effects in fission, neutron and gamma-ray emission from fission. Collaboration with IPHC (Strasbourg) is possible.
Participation in the CERN nTof project
