We are looking for a M.Sc. in theoretical physics. The prospective PhD candidate should have a background in quantum field theory, general relativity and cosmology as can be obtained in typical introductory courses for master students. He or she should be enthusiastic about doing a PhD thesis in a collaborative team consisting of theoretical and experimental physicists of the Atominstitut. This 3-year PhD position will be in the theory group of Mario Pitschmann, which focuses on the search for dark energy and dark matter by using high-precision tabletop experiments.
The candidate should be self-driven, talented and a team player. Please provide the following: two letters of recommendation (one from the supervisor of the master thesis), CV, electronic copy (e.g. PDF) of the master thesis.
