Join Our Team at the School of Physical and Mathematical Sciences, Nanyang Technological University, Singapore
The School of Physical and Mathematical Sciences (SPMS) at NTU Singapore hosts research and education activities in two divisions: Division of Mathematical Sciences (MAS) and Division of Physics and Applied Physics (PAP). MAS covers diverse topics ranging from pure mathematics to the applications of mathematics in cryptography, computing, business, and finance. PAP covers many areas of fundamental and applied physics, including quantum information, condensed matter physics, biophysics, and photonics. Over the years, SPMS has attracted talented individuals from around the world and Singapore to join as scientific leaders and researchers.
Position Available: Research Fellow, Plasma physics for Fusion Energy
The project aims to assess impurity transport under different plasma turbulence regimes, as well as the effects of plasma shaping. The Research Fellow will be employed and based at NTU, and is expected to travel overseas to collaborate with scientific teams at CEA, France.
Key Responsibilities:
-
Investigate impurity transport under different plasma turbulence regimes and evaluate their impact on global plasma confinement
-
Assess the effect of geometry on plasma confinement and behavior of turbulence
-
Build-up a comprehensive database based on these simulations and analyze data
