PhD Position in Gravitational Waves at Nikhef
The PhD position will focus on the development and application of the modelling framework Finesse (https://finesse.ifosim.org/). Finesse is an open source code for modelling laser interferometers for precision experiments and we deliver the software to the large scientific projects Virgo, LIGO and the Einstein Telescope (ET). To keep up with the more advanced instrumentation in ET we are extending and enhancing Finesse. You will make significant contribution to the Python code and you will work as a member of the international design team that defines the shape and performance of the most advanced observatory for gravitational waves. Application deadline: September 15th, 2025.
