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.</span></font>

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.
