Barcelona Supercomputing Center (BSC) is looking for postdoctoral researcher with PhD in neutron transport simulations to work in our Fusion group.
The successful candidate will become an active member of our group’s research projects. The group is multidisciplinary and works in close collaboration with the EUROfusion programme and ITER.
This week, from 6th to 8th of June, our group leader Mervi Mantsinen has participated in the Workshop on Ion Cyclotron Resonance Frequency Heating (ICRH) scenarios for ITER organized at ITER Headquarters, France.
This week our group members Dani Gallart and Mervi Mantsinen presented their research results at the 22nd Topical Conference on Radiofrequency Power in Plasmas.
The conference was held in the sunny town of Aix-en-Provence in south of France and was organized by the IRFM (Institut de Recherche sur la Fusion par confinement Magnétique) of the CEA Physical Science Division.
This week our group leader Mervi Mantsinen has worked at the Max-Planck Institute for Plasma Physics (IPP) at Garching, Germany where she has participated in the experimental campaign on the ASDEX Upgrade tokamak as part of the 2017 EUROfusion Medium Size Tokamak (MST1) campaigns.
Our fusion group members Dani Gallart and Mervi Mantsinen are currently stationed at the JET tokamak, the world’s largest fusion device located at the Culham Science Center, Oxfordshire, United Kingdom.
At JET, Dani and Mervi are taking part in the EUROfusion modelling and analysis tasks in the preparation of the next campaigns. In particular, they are working to improve the preparedness of fusion simulation codes to simulate plasmas with tritium.
This week, 14-18 November 2016, Mervi Mantsinen and Felipe Nathan de Oliveira have participated in the 2017 Planning meeting of EUROfusion Work Package on Medium Size Tokamaks (WP MST1) at the Max-Planck Institute for Plasmaphysics, Garching, Germany.
