Wanted: PhD Students at RAPP Center Ruhr-Universität Bochum, Germany

The RAPP Center is one of the leading institutes in interlinking the fields of Plasma-, Astro- and Particle Physics at the high-energy frontier. We offer an inspiring research environment, in which fundamental insights from plasma and particle physics are used in astrophysical environments for a better understanding.

The Ruhr Astroparticle and Plasma Physics Center (RAPP Center)* searches for several PhD students (E13, 75%). The positions will be in the areas of Theoretical Plasma Physics, Theoretical and Observational Astro- and Astroparticle Physics, Cosmology, and Particle Physics.

Research: The advertised positions are offered in this topical spectrum:

• Theoretical description of particle transport and interaction in galactic propagation environments (magnetohydrodynamics, transport equation, ballistic propagation).

• Multimessenger observations of galaxies and transient events

• Synthetic turbulence and particle transport in intermittent fields

• Relativistic reconnection in nuclei of active galaxies

• Measurement and simulation of interaction products at LHCb, IceCube and Auger at

  the highest energies

• Dark matter in dwarf galaxies and in cosmological surveys
