Our project aims to address this knowledge gap by designing and conducting a series of laboratory experiments in a novel physical regime. The successful candidate will play a key role in the development and execution of these experiments, which will provide valuable insights into the mechanisms underlying lightning initiation and x-ray emission.

Key Responsibilities

  • Design and conduct laboratory experiments to study lightning initiation and x-ray emission
  • Develop and implement novel experimental techniques to measure and analyze discharge properties
  • Collaborate with the research team to interpret results and draw conclusions
  • Contribute to the development of a comprehensive understanding of lightning physics

Requirements

  • Master's degree in physics or a closely related field
  • Strong background in experimental physics, plasma physics, and/or high voltage technology
  • Excellent research skills and a proven track record of publications
  • Fluent in spoken and written English

What We Offer

  • Full-time employment for four years
  • Salary and benefits in accordance with the Collective Labour Agreement for Dutch Universities
  • Opportunities for professional development and growth
  • A dynamic and collaborative research environment
