Accelerator Physicist (Lead)
Acceleron Fusion, Cambridge, MA
What you will do
- Own the technical strategy and program plan for accelerator-driven muon production and associated beamlines, including design, schedule, risk, and interface management.
- Participate in design and optimization of accelerator systems and beamlines for muon focusing and cooling; perform and review beam dynamics simulations.
- Lead or supervise contractors/vendors for preconceptual linac design and related subsystems; establish technical specifications and acceptance criteria.
- Specify and architect the RF power chain (MW-class RF power conversion, distribution, waveguides, couplers) and coordinate with cryogenics on thermal load budgets (kW-level at cryo temperatures).
