In relation to this fellowship we are seeking postdoc candidates with Chinese 
or Indian nationality to work with the experimental nuclear physics group at 
Tel Aviv or Hebrew University of Jerusalem.

   The candidate is expected to take central role in the  group activity that 
include:
1. analysis of an experiment to measure the proton form factor ratio
        at very low momentum transfer at JLab (E08-007).

2. analysis of Hall B data (data mining project).

3. analysis of SRC experiment at JLab (E07-006).

4. design and prototyping of a neutron polarimeter for the A1 experimental hall
    at the MAMI accelerator at Mainz.

5. construction of A Large Acceptance Detector (LAD) for the 12 GeV JLab.
    (E12-11-107)

6. Measure muon-proton scattering proposed at the PSI facility.

The candidate will also have the opportunity to develop his/her own research 
program in the field of Electro Nuclear physics.


A PhD in experimental nuclear physics is required. The candidate must have a 
strong background in particle detector technology, detector simulation and data 
analysis. The candidate will be resident in Isreal with trips to accelerator
laboratories in USA and Germany.

Interested candidates should send (1) a letter of application, (2) a curriculum 
vitae, (3) a list of selected publications, (4) a brief statement of research 
interests and (5) a list of three references . Candidates should also arrange 
for letters of recommendation to be sent directly to the address below.
