Offer Description
LIP opens a call for one Research Student Fellowship (BI - Bachelor) for participating in the project “Nova física com o bosão de Higgs na experiência ATLAS”, funded in the framework of the collaboration agreement between Fundação La Caixa and LIP.
Work plan:
This fellowship is intended for scientific research work within the scope of the ATLAS experiment, one of the detectors that operate on the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), at CERN. This project is part of the program of new physics searches carried out by the ATLAS experiment and will contribute to the development of the analysis techniques used by the collaboration. The main goal of this project is the development and implementation of novel algorithms to identify new particles. The students will apply machine learning techniques in classification problems focused on the identification of Higgs bosons decaying to a pair of b-quarks for searching for novel particles in the ATLAS detector data. The student will join the LIP ATLAS team and will also collaborate with members of the ATLAS experiment from other institutes around the world. Their results will be presented and discussed in ATLAS collaboration meetings, both remotely and/or in person.
Legislation:
The fellowship contract will be established according to the “Regulations for Research Grants of the Foundation for Science and Technology” (https://dre.pt/application/conteudo/127238533) and to the Status of Scientific Research Fellow (Law nº 40/2004 de 18 de Agosto, and its successive amendments).
Duration:
The fellowship has a duration of 6 months, eventually renewable until the end of project, with a foreseen starting date in April 2023.
