[Cugapost] CMU PostDoc Position

[Lorelei Carlson]

 Postdoctoral Research Asscociate
        Experimental Particle Physics/GlueX
                 Carnegie Mellon University

The Carnegie Mellon University Experimental Medium Energy Physics Group invites applications for a post-doctoral researcher to support our work at Jefferson Lab.  The one-year position is renewable for up to three years and the starting dates are negotiable. The successful applicant will work with Professors Curtis Meyer and Reinhard Schumacher on the GlueX experiment, but additional activities in other halls or on the EIC are open for discussion. The successful candidates would be joining a group with a Research Scientist and 5 graduate students, and could be located eiher at Carnegie Mellon or at Jefferson Lab.

Our current activities with GlueX span a range of physics searches for hybrid mesons, the photo production of K-bar-K final states, and baryon-antibaryon photoproduction. We also support the operation of the central drift chamber, and centralized analysis tasks and efforts to include machine learning and artificial intelligence in GlueX. Participation in these activities is encouraged and new initiatives are welcome.

We seek candidates with strong experimental skills including data analysis and simulation and preferably with some hardware experience. Experience with Root and Geant4 would be very useful. In addition, experience in amplitude analysis would be valuable but not necessary. Candidates with a Ph.D. in experimental nuclear physics, medium energy, or high energy physics are encouraged to apply.  Further information about some of the group's activities can be found at http://www.cmu.edu/physics/research/nuclear-particle.html<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=http-3A__www.cmu.edu_physics_research_nuclear-2Dparticle.html&d=DwMFaQ&c=CJqEzB1piLOyyvZjb8YUQw&r=TI1-uR1CNrL-lIqQDSyKdxNA8TlS9bg3dZbKl21HDQU&m=8zW9d3Yg4z7N52_Kef2-NwRraCSn2R8iqc_9DOrk5w0CjvkacYlgCCWITr8okQMC&s=jnjG0ev8u138KAjDYZDjumZ3tUti_aCAsfkTt_EgI_w&e=> .

Applicants should submit a curriculum vitae and summary of research interests, and arrange to have three letters of recommendation submitted.  Documents should be submitted through http://apply.interfolio.com/102717<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=http-3A__apply.interfolio.com_102717&d=DwMFaQ&c=CJqEzB1piLOyyvZjb8YUQw&r=TI1-uR1CNrL-lIqQDSyKdxNA8TlS9bg3dZbKl21HDQU&m=8zW9d3Yg4z7N52_Kef2-NwRraCSn2R8iqc_9DOrk5w0CjvkacYlgCCWITr8okQMC&s=kaJFnWtp6aWoDrZh0ONt74PUfIG980ja2xYkEq8oO-4&e=> .  If this is not possible, they should be sent to Prof. Schumacher at schumacher at cmu.edu<mailto:schumacher at cmu.edu>  or to Prof.  Reinhard Schumacher, Physics Department, Carnegie Mellon University, Pittsburgh, PA, 15213.  Applications will be considered, and review will continue until the position is filled.  For more information, contact Prof. Schumacher at the addresses given above.

Carnegie Mellon is an Equal Opportunity Employer/Disability/Veteran.
