Will you strengthen the DIFFER strategy as our Research group leader in Fusion Energy Intergrated Modelling?
Job description
for core-edge integrated tokamak modelling who can lead a vigorous research effort in the development and application of core-edge integrated tokamak modelling tools.
As research group leader you will be responsible for developing your own research line in synergy with the other group leaders of the DIFFER Fusion Energy department. You will guide your group members, and control the budget and planning. You will be able to attract national and international funding for your research and to develop a leading role in the EUROfusion integrated modelling activities. You are responsible for the quality of the projects within the group and publications in leading international journals.
We are looking for an early to mid-career researcher with experience in development and application of state of the art scrape-off-layer and divertor modelling tools (SOLPS-ITER or similar) and / or core-edge integrated modelling tools (JINTRAC or a similar code suite). Some experience in reduced model design, plasma turbulence modelling, or the use of Machine Learning for the development of fast surrogate models will be an advantage. Your research will be able to create the bridge between the physics of tokamak divertors and the experiments in our in-house linear divertor simulators (Magnum-PSI and UPP).
