Northern Illinois Center for Accelerator and Detector Development

Graduate Study

Since NICADD staff collaborate with physicists from Fermilab, Argonne and around the world this is an excellent opportunity to pursue exciting new topics.

Research positions are available in a wide variety of subjects. The student may chose to research a number of beams physics topics including the cooling of muon beams, the generation and dynamics of electron beams, and beam diagnostics. Alternatively, there are opportunities in development and simulation of particle detectors and the development of proton tomography. Students also may participate in the DZERO or ATLAS collider experiments.
