Your Tasks
- The successful candidate will analyse data taken with the NUCLEUS experiment during the commissioning phase and physics runs.
- A main aspect of the work will be the improvement of NUCLEUS event reconstruction and event selection using Artificial Intelligence (AI) methods, with application in the subsequent analysis.
- In addition, the application of the AI methods for detector setup, operation, and optimization for NUCLEUS data taking could be performed.
- Contributions to the commissioning and operation of the NUCLEUS experiment at its experimental site in Chooz, France are expected.

Your personal sphere of influence:
We are looking for a highly motivated and creative PhD student to explore fundamental questions of planetary habitability related to Snowball Earth or Earth-like exoplanets. Possible topics could be the mechanisms that allow or inhibit water belt states as alternative scenarios for Snowball Earth, the impact of clouds, aerosols and hazes on the climate and habitability of Earth-like exoplanets, or the development of a new radiation scheme for climate model simulations with high atmospheric carbon dioxide. Whatever the topic, you will develop and run climate model simulations and combine the modeling work with theory and mechanistic understanding. You will have the opportunity to run global simulations with km resolution on some of the fastest supercomputers available for climate science. You will also benefit from our long-term collaborations on Snowball Earth and exoplanets with the Department of Astrophysics of the University of Vienna, the University of Chicago, Columbia University, and Peking University.
