[Cugapost] Postdoctoral research associate position at the Catholic University of America

[Lorelei Chopard]

The Physics Department of the Catholic University of America in 
Washington, DC. invites applications for a postdoctoral research 
associate in the experimental nuclear physics group. This position 
presents opportunity to work on two projects, currently running the 
GlueX Experiment in Hall D at Jefferson Lab and future Electron Ion 
Collider.

The successful applicant is expected to make significant contribution to 
the data analysis with the GlueX hadronic physics program, which is 
currently ongoing. The applicant will also have opportunity to take part 
in the construction and commissioning of a new DIRC particle 
identification detector, which will provide pion/kaon separation to 
search for exotic mesons containing strange quarks.


The second part of the position will provide the opportunity to play 
important role in a R&D program of PID system for the future Electron 
Ion Collider. It focus on pushing the DIRC technology beyond the state 
of the arc by developing the High Performance DIRC detector. It will 
provide the opportunity to work both on simulations as well as a wide 
range of hardware activities.


Applicants must have a Ph.D. in experimental nuclear or particle 
physics.  Experience with hardware and data analysis is desirable. 
  Candidates must submit a cover letter, curriculum vitae, research 
statement, and provide names and email addresses of three references who 
will be contacted to submit a letter of reference.
