[Cugapost] Two post-doctoral positions at Ohio University

[Lorelei Carlson]

POST-DOCTORAL POSITION IN NUCLEAR THEORY AT OHIO UNIVERSITY

The Nuclear Theory Group at Ohio University anticipates hiring a post-doctoral research associate to take up a position starting in the Fall of 2021. Applicants must have a Ph.D. in physics (or anticipate having a Ph.D. in hand by September 2021).  The research interests of the group cover a broad range of topics.  These include nuclear and electromagnetic reactions in light systems, as well as reactions involving nuclei near the neutron- and proton-drip lines with particular emphasis on halo nuclei and direct reactions. Research topics in nuclear astrophysics include core-collapse supernovae, the structure and evolution of young and old neutron stars, binary mergers of compact objects, and the interpretation of signals from multi-messsenger astronomy.  We attack these problems using a variety of forefront techniques including effective field theory, Faddeev techniques, Bayesian uncertainty quantification, and many-body theory at zero and finite-temperature.  Preference will be given to expertise in nuclear astrophysics, but we expect the successful candidate to contribute to the efforts of the group as a whole.  Thus applicants should have a strong research record and display significant initiative to complement their research skills. The appointment will initially be for one year. Renewal for a second year is highly probable, but is contingent on funding and job performance.

Interested candidates are requested to submit a curriculum vitae, and a statement of research interests which should include a complete list of publications to:https://www.ohiouniversityjobs.com/postings/35456<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.ohiouniversityjobs.com_postings_35456&d=DwMFAg&c=CJqEzB1piLOyyvZjb8YUQw&r=NXc6ETf15Ad2OT-P0W4YLg&m=3ph5FMrfdCG0IVx50IxsSbDCmcOQWR8nQ-TqFnnNKD4&s=Bre3RpCnEXIL7wDjcqmw1AMCbfL3TH7e62ySrYwF-3o&e=>

Only submissions via this method will be accepted.  When you submit your application you will be asked to provide the names of three people willing to write a reference letter on your behalf. Those individuals will then be contacted by email and asked to upload a letter to our system.

Questions about the position should be addressed to Prof. Charlotte Elster, elster at ohio.edu<mailto:elster at ohio.edu>.  Review of applications will begin December 10, 2020.

Women, persons of color, persons with disabilities, and veterans are encouraged to apply.

POST-DOCTORAL POSITION AT OHIO UNIVERSITY: BAYESIAN ANALYSIS OF NUCLEAR DYNAMICS

The Institute of Nuclear and Particle Physics at Ohio University anticipates hiring a full-time, post-doctoral research associate to take up a position starting in Summer 2021. The appointment will initially be for one year. Renewal for two additional years is highly probable, but is contingent on funding and job performance.

The successful candidate will be expected to work with Prof. Daniel Phillips and his external collaborators on applications of Bayesian Model Mixing in Nuclear Physics, and on implementing software tools in the Bayesian Analysis of Nuclear Dynamics (BAND) Software Framework (https://bandframework.github.io/<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__nam03.safelinks.protection.outlook.com_-3Furl-3Dhttps-253A-252F-252Fbandframework.github.io-252F-26data-3D02-257C01-257Cphillid1-2540ohio.edu-257C9cce2e49b2e34467b4c208d85c1a1273-257Cf3308007477c4a70888934611817c55a-257C0-257C0-257C637360614329698531-26sdata-3DHzC0S9OlV3l0LrwdfuL83qi99RkQrNduHqaEt-252B-252FA0-252BU-253D-26reserved-3D0&d=DwMFAg&c=CJqEzB1piLOyyvZjb8YUQw&r=NXc6ETf15Ad2OT-P0W4YLg&m=3ph5FMrfdCG0IVx50IxsSbDCmcOQWR8nQ-TqFnnNKD4&s=8_GqcIEvdE1KDnIr9ZYDl-GJrvwN283J3UexPbMSOsw&e=>) that will facilitate such applications. Previous experience with Bayesian Methods and collaborative software development is desired, but not essential. The successful candidate must have strong communication skills and the ability to work well as part of a geographically distributed interdisciplinary team.

Applicants must have a Ph.D. in physics (or anticipate having a Ph.D. in hand by June 2021). Interested candidates are requested to submit a curriculum vitae that includes a complete list of publications as well as a cover letter that explains how their previous research is relevant for this position through the website: https://www.ohiouniversityjobs.com/postings/35477<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.ohiouniversityjobs.com_postings_35477&d=DwMFAg&c=CJqEzB1piLOyyvZjb8YUQw&r=NXc6ETf15Ad2OT-P0W4YLg&m=3ph5FMrfdCG0IVx50IxsSbDCmcOQWR8nQ-TqFnnNKD4&s=b4jDAKpaG0J7Mw7KRsHfXQ2tfoevU18Ig_ctOWnYMHI&e=>
