Experimental Nuclear Physics Group<br>
North Carolina A&T State University<br>
<br>
The Nuclear Physics Group at the North Carolina A&T State University is<br>
accepting applications for a postdoctoral research associate position to<br>
work on the third run and data analysis of the experiment to measure the<br>
η→γγ decay width (E12-10-011) in Hall D at JLab. The<br>
concluding run of this experiment is currently scheduled for August 2022.<br>
In addition, our group is playing a leading role in the PRad Collaboration<br>
to perform a precision measurement of the proton charge radius to address<br>
the “proton radius puzzle” in hadronic and atomic physics. Currently we<br>
are preparing the second, much upgraded experiment (PRad-II) to improve<br>
the total experimental uncertainty by a factor of four for this important<br>
physical quantity. Our group is also playing a leading role in development<br>
of a new experiment to search for hidden sector low mass particles, in<br>
particular the hypothetical X17 particle, recently observed in two low<br>
energy nuclear physics experiments.<br>
The successful candidate will be located at Jefferson Laboratory and<br>
expected to take leading roles in both data analysis, preparation of new<br>
proposals through active Monte Carlo simulations, and preparation of new<br>
experiments in Hall B at JLab. Applicants must have a recent Ph.D. in<br>
experimental nuclear or high energy particle physics and experience<br>
working with hardware and software for accelerator based experiments, as<br>
well as, an extensive knowledge of data analysis techniques. Review of<br>
applications will start from June 1st, 2022 and will continue to accept<br>
applications until the position is filled.<br>
Applicants should submit a cover letter, curriculum vitae, statement of<br>
research interests and experience and arrange to have three letters of<br>
recommendations emailed to:<br>
