Postdoctoral researcher in scattered light calibration for gravitational wave detectors
The Department of Physics in the Faculty of Science is looking for a full-time (100%) postdoctoral scholarship holder in gravitational wave instrumentation, with a focus on a novel calibration technique for Advanced Virgo+ Phase 2 (O5). The group is an active member of the Virgo, Einstein Telescope (ET), and ETpathfinder collaborations. Position Precise calibration of the interferometer strain h(t) is essential to exploit the full sensitivity of Virgo and ET. In this project the successful candidate will further develop, install, and commission a new and independent calibration method that…
