Job Description
Overview
The successful candidate will play a leading role in the development and maintenance of a core X-ray Imaging Crystal Spectrometer (XICS) on the JT-60SA tokamak, including its calibration, operation, tomographic integration, and data analysis. This advanced diagnostic capability will be applied to study particle, thermal, and momentum transport across Ohmic, NBI, and RF-heated plasma scenarios. The proposed work also aims to exploit new real-time diagnostic data capabilities in combination with theory, state-of-the-art computational modeling, and a rigorous verification and validation (V&V) framework developed by PPPL in collaboration with national and international partners.
JT-60SA, located in Naka, Japan, is the largest and most powerful tokamak currently in operation worldwide. As a superconducting device capable of long-pulse operation with advanced plasma shaping and control, it provides a unique platform for developing the physics and technologies e...
