Marie Skłodowska-Curie Postdoctoral Fellowship for Dr. Ricardo Peres
We are pleased to announce that Dr. Ricardo Peres has been awarded a prestigious and highly competitive Marie Skłodowska-Curie Postdoctoral Fellowship.
Ricardo as started the 2 years fellowship at Imperial College London in the group of Prof. Henrique Araújo last June. His project, IRIS-XLZD, will focus on R&D for the next-generation xenon observatory, XLZD. Building on his work at the University of Zurich, Ricardo will investigate the use of SiPMs to improve the optical readout instrumentation of the liquid xenon skin and explore solutions to ensure the supernova-readiness of the future detector . The project will also involve close collaboration with the group at UZH, including joint R&D using the Xenoscope facility.
