PhD Study
With the start-up of ATLAS and the LHC in 2008 now is a time of unprecedented excitement for particle physics and the whole of science. If you have or expect at least a 2.1 class or equivalent in your first degree in a physics-related subject then you have the unprecedented opportunity to play a leading role in some of the important scientific discoveries for 25 years. The Sheffield ATLAS group is one of the most active in physics analysis in the whole of ATLAS. We offer PhD projects in
- searches for the Higgs boson and the origin of mass,
- searches for Supersymmetric particles and the origin of dark matter,
- studies of low energy proton-proton interactions.
If you choose to continue your study in the Sheffield ATLAS group you could soon be contributing to these exciting topics and helping to revolutionise our understanding of the universe! For more details of application procedures please see here. For more details of our research please see here.
For more information please contact Dan Tovey with any questions.
Fellowships
The group is always keen to host the holders of research fellowships from STFC, the Royal-Society, the EU or elsewhere. These fellowships usually offer significant freedom to carry out an independent program of work and can provide the perfect spring-board to securing an academic position at a major university.
If you are interested in applying for a Fellowship in the Sheffield ATLAS group please contact Dan Tovey for more information.
