This PhD project in experimental physics at Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam asks how the first antimatter molecule could be made by studying the fundamental collision between a proton and a hydrogen atom. The research sits in the NWO Vidi project SAMURAI and focuses on one of the simplest yet most important atomic processes: whether the pair can bind and emit a photon to form H 2 + , a key reaction connected to molecule formation in the early universe and to proposed routes toward antimatter chemis...

Quick Questions

Do I need to contact a supervisor before applying for a PhD position?
In many European and Asian universities yes; in some US programs applications are centralized but supervisor contact still helps.
Is GRE required for master’s or PhD applications abroad?
It depends on the country and university — many programs have made GRE optional, especially outside the US.
Do funded PhD positions usually cover tuition and living expenses?
Yes. Most funded PhD roles include tuition coverage plus a monthly stipend, but details vary by country and lab.
Are publications required to apply for PhD or postdoc positions?
Not always required for PhD, but strongly recommended. For postdoc roles, publications are usually expected.
Will I need to pay a tuition deposit for master’s admission?
In many countries yes — especially for taught master’s programs — but funded PhD positions typically do not require deposits.
