Offer Description ADDF (Association for the Development of the Physics Department), a private not-for-profit institution that belongs to the SICTN, calls for tenders for the selection of 1 (one) Post-Doctoral Fellow under the following conditions:
Scientific Area: Physics
Research scholarship for one candidate holding a Doctoral degree is open, in the framework of project with reference 2024.00249.CERN, entitled "Topological defects as a probe of new physics: from CMB birefringence to gravitational waves" financed entirely by the PRR, within the scope of the investment "RE-C06-i06 - Science More Capacity", measure "RE-C06-i06.m02 - Reinforcement of financing for International Partnerships in Science, Technology and Innovation of the PRR".
The fellow will perform research in the context of the R&D project "Topological defects as a probe of new physics: from CMB birefringence to gravitational waves". This project aims to make progress in understanding the dynamics and observational signatures of networks that include one type of defect, the so-called domain wall (DW), in particular, in connection with cosmic birefringence and gravitational waves.
Work Place Department of Physics, Faculty of Sciences and Technology, University of Coimbra, Portugal.
