In ultrarelativistic heavy-ion collisions at the CERN LHC and BNL RHIC, we investigate the properties of the quark-gluon plasma created in the first millionth of a second of the Universe. Traditionally, this is modelled using particle physics Monte Carlo simulators. Our research
group is developing the HIJING++ code, a parallelized C++-based simulation framework, specifically for simulating high-energy nuclear physics processes (jet suppression, Cronin effect, minijet production).
This framework can also incorporate modules based on artificial intelligence. The PhD candidate's task is to develop the HIJING++ code for the investigation of high-energy nuclear physics effects and for understanding hadronization processes.
Professional English, basics of high-energy particle and nuclear physics, QCD, Pythia and programming in Python, C++, as well as neural networks is mandatory. Useful if the candidate know Root and program in Fortran.
