The Space Research and Planetology Division at the University of Bern is seeking a highly motivated PhD student to join its esteemed Space Science Group. Our group specializes in studying the composition of tenuous gases near solar system objects using time-of-flight mass spectrometers and determining surface compositions with advanced laser ablation techniques. Notably, we developed and built the mass spectrometer for ESA's JUICE mission and are responsible for the preparation and analysis of the measurements it will conduct once the mission arrives in the Jupiter system in July 2031. To support the missions we are involved in, we have developed a sophisticated computer model for simulating planetary atmospheres, which has been successfully applied to various solar system bodies, including Mercury, the Moon, Venus, Titan, Europa, Callisto, Ganymede, and comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko.
This research project focuses on preparing measurements by the mass spectrometers on board ESA's... More Detail
