About this position
Gran Sasso Science Institute (GSSI) is advertising 2 PhD positions and 3 postdoc positions in machine-learning control for the Virgo detector. The research focuses on reinforcement learning for detector control, the development of a time-domain digital twin of the Virgo detector, and online system identification tools. The team also plans first steps toward adaptive RL control in Virgo, with initial testing on GEMINI using a GPU-endowed control unit.
These openings are especially relevant for candidates interested in computer science, physics, electrical engineering, mathematics, and robotics, with a strong emphasis on control systems and AI methods applied to scientific instrumentation. The post is announced by Professor Jan Harms at GSSI, with links to Leibniz Universität Hannover also mentioned in the profile context.
Funding: PhD students receive fellowships plus financial support for rent and food. GSSI also offers generous travel funding for all researchers. The post does not specify a postdoc salary amount.
Application: All applications must be submitted through the GSSI application portal. The post provides a direct application link and lists separate reference IDs for the postdoc positions (DLS1, DLS2, DLS3) and the PhD positions (FIS Project_Astroparticle Physics).
Deadlines: PhD positions: May 28. Postdoc positions: May 21.
