Description	CERN is coordinating the EU-project ¿European NoVel Imaging Systems for ION therapy (ENVISION)¿. Hadrontherapy is a highly advanced technique of cancer radiotherapy that uses beams of charged particles (such as ions or protons) to destroy tumour cells. Among other goals, ENVISION aims at developing solutions for real-time non invasive monitoring of hadrontherapy, quantitative imaging, and the precise determination of delivered physical and biological dose. An essential part of the project is the development of reliable Monte Carlo simulations for in-vivo dosimetry. However, there is no a-priori fundamental theory of nuclear interactions: several physics-driven models have been developed and applied successfully to many problems. These models are being currently tested and validated for the projectile/target combinations and energy ranges of interest for hadrontherapy. The selected candidate will be involved in the test, assessment and upgrade of the physical models for existing Monte Carlo codes, with special focus on proton beams (protontherapy). He/She will also collaborate to simulate in beam experiments with those codes, and to improve the nuclear physics models accordingly if so required.
Special Requirements	University Degree in Physics. Background in particle and/or nuclear physics. Experience in programming in C, C++ and/or FORTRAN is desirable, as well as hands on experience in using any Monte-Carlo simulation package (FLUKA, Geant4, etc.) Basic level of active and passive English language skills are required.
Training Value	Monte-Carlo simulations and physics for medical applications; insight into dose planning and imaging for hadrontherapy . Participation in a cutting edge European project in which imaging, therapy, physics, computing and medicine merge.

Description	The ATLAS superconduciting magnet system provides the magnetic field for the inner detector and muon detectors in the ATLAS Experiment, presently fully operational in the ATLAS cavern. The magnet system consists of 3 superconducting toroids and a solenoid. The toroids are the largest ever built and unique in design, size and manufacturing aspects. The test results collected over the past years demands a good analyses including comparison to theory and models. The candidate participates within a team to the magnets testing evaluation. Welcome to this project! I hope you will join our team and participate to its success in the month to come.....! Herman ten Kate, ATLAS Magnet Project Leader.
Special Requirements	university level, applied or technical physics, electrotechnics or applied mechanics with physics interest
Training Value	training in technical and applied physics, magnet technology, superconductivity, magnet testing and data analysis, comparison with theory.

Description	Design of a new 5-6T class superconducting solenoid for a future Linear Collider. Currenty at CERN the design and R&D has started for the future magnet system required in a linear collider detector. A superconducting solenoid of 5-6T is foreseen for which a disign has to be made and the superconducotr developed. You will join the design team and contribute on one of the key issues liek superconductor development, coil winding design, stability studies, quench pro[agation, dection and protection etc.
Special Requirements	university level training in applied physics
Training Value	learns to understand superconductivty, practical superconductors and their application in superconducting magnets for partical detectors.
