The Astronomy and Astrophysics Research Group of the Vrije Universiteit Brussel (VUB) in Belgium is hiring 2 PhD researchers and 1 postdoctoral researcher in radio detection of cosmic particles with the LOFAR radio telescope. The research program is funded by the European Research Council (ERC).
Together with the universities from Wisconsin and Delaware and the Observatoire de Paris, Gwenhaël de Wasseige and the team of the Vrije Universiteit Brussel have developed a totally new way to search for these interesting neutrinos by using satellite data.
Today, CERN's Large Hadron Collider (LHC) started delivering physics data for the first time in 27 months. After an almost two year shutdown and several months re-commissioning, the LHC is now providing collisions to all of its experiments at the unprecedented energy of 13 TeV, almost double the collision energy of its first run. This marks the start of season 2 at the LHC, opening the way to new discoveries. The LHC will now run round the clock for the next three years.
