Postdoc (m/f/d) for pellet injector development - Experimental Plasma Physics

The Max Planck Institute for Plasma Physics as an institute of the Max Planck Society for the Advancement of Science (registered association) is one of the leading centres for fusion research and is engaged in developing the physical foundations for a future fusion power plant. The institute is affiliated with the European Fusion Programme. The Max-Planck-Institute for Plasma Physics in Greifswald offers within the Stellarator Heating and Optimization division (E3) a position for a Postdoc (m/f/d) for pellet injector Job Code: gw25/016 Full time Limited to operate the pellet injector and improve its performance, and to develop and conduct experimental pellet programs on W7‑X. The Institute is a worldrenowned laboratory conducting pioneering research in the field of magnetic fusion science, being the home of the Wendelstein 7‑X stellarator. Our international research team focuses on plasma physics and engineering to advance sustainable energy solutions through controlled fusion reactions. One of the research objectives is the safe operation of highpower fusion devices. A reactor relevant process is the fueling of the burning
