University invites applications for a
Postdoctoral Research Associate position. The
group's research interests include the study of
</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">sea quark distributions, the
EMC effect, and parton energy loss with the
Drell-Yan experiment at Fermilab. The group has
recently joined the polarized Drell-Yan, E1039,
experiment at Fermilab to study <span
style="color:black">the poorly known gluon
transverse momentum distributions using </span><span
style="color:windowtext">J/Psi</span><span
style="color:black"> production.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:black">In
addition the group also has a very active
program in studies </span>of nucleon
structure, hadronic physics and fundamental
symmetries at Jefferson Lab, such as the study
of color propagation and<span> </span>fragmentation
process, the search for the onset of color
transparency, and precision measurement of
charge symmetry violation in quark
distributions.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">We are looking for candidates
who will help lead our effort on <span
style="color:black">developing an advanced
graphics processing unit (<u>GPU</u>) based
multi-threaded framework for the online data
reconstruction and monitoring, the
commissioning and maintenance of the tracking
chambers, and t</span>he running of the E1039
experiment. The candidate could be stationed at
Fermilab depending on the running schedule and
needs of E1039.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">A Ph.D in experimental
nuclear or particle physics or related fields is
required. Preference will be given to candidates
with GPU-based programming knowledge and
experience.<span> </span>The initial
appointment is for one year, and can start as
early as October 1, 2018. The appointment can be
extended for a maximum of two additional years,
based on mutual satisfaction and available fund.

<p class="MsoNormal">Screening of applications
will begin immediately and will continue until
the position is filled. Applications' documents
including a curriculum vita, brief statement
describing research interests and work
experience and three recommendation letters
should be sent electronically to: Prof. Lamiaa
