Dear all,
We are happy to announce the launch of the ETpathfinder visiting scientist programme. It provides funding to researchers and engineers to work at the ETpathfinder R&D facility in Maastricht, the Netherlands. This program is designed for senior scientists and engineers, postdoctoral researchers and experienced PhD students who wish to engage with cutting-edge interferometric technology while contributing their expertise to advance our experimental capabilities.
ETpathfinder serves as a R&D fieldlab facility for developing technologies that will enable future -generation gravitational wave detectors, such as Einstein Telescope. Our research focuses on high-precision interferometry with cryogenic silicon test masses, seismic isolation systems, optics, photonics, quantum noise reduction, controls and environmental monitoring as well as on engineering, systems engineering, integration and cleanliness aspects.
