Join the Particle Physics Group
Postgraduate studiesIf you'd like to join us in October 2012 and be involved in looking at fresh data from CERN's new Large Hadron Collider, we have opportunities to work on data analysis in either the CMS or LHCb experiment. Interested students could also work on technology R&D in a variety of areas: new particle detector techniques using CVD diamond; novel integrated detectors; upgraded detector components for CMS or LHCb; or new experiments in the area of quark flavour physics.
Bristol Ph.D. students will usually join one of the experiments and undertake some physics analysis as their main activity, and will also be involved in some aspect of the detector operation. There are also opportunities for interested applicants to focus more on the detector upgrade programme, including hardware R&D and software simulation studies.
For all of our first year postgraduate students, we offer comprehensive training in both theoretical and experimental particle physics. The training programme for this year can be found here.
