Group Leader - Low Energy Nuclear Physics at ANL

Argonne National Laboratory is seeking applications for the role of Group Leader for the Low-Energy Nuclear Physics Research Group (LER) within the Physics Division. With a staff of 11 Ph.D. scientists complemented by approximately 7 postdocs, the LER is the largest research group in the Physics Division, and conducts world-leading research in nuclear structure, nuclear astrophysics, fundamental symmetries, and nuclear data. Additionally, the group oversees, operates, and develops existing advanced detector systems at the ATLAS National User Facility. ATLAS is supported by the Office of Nuclear Physics of the Department of Energy and hosts 300-500 users annually from U.S. universities and national laboratories as well as from institutions abroad. ATLAS offers both stable beams and unique rare isotope beams from either the CARIBU (Californium Rare Ion Breeder Upgrade) facility or the in-flight production facility RAISOR.

The Low Energy Nuclear Physics Research group is primarily funded by the DOE's Office of Nuclear Physics. Key responsibilities for the Group Leader include: • managing research priorities, long-term planning, and budget allocations, • responding to DOE initiatives and information requests, • mentoring, developing and evaluating staff, • fostering a robust culture of safety and inclusive excellence, • collaborating with the Physics Division Director and other group leaders to develop strategic plans and set priorities, and building productive relationships with funding agencies, academic institutions, and the broader research community.

In addition, the LER Group Leader is expected to develop and lead a world-class research program that strongly aligns with DOE priorities in low energy nuclear physics, as outlined in the 2023 Nuclear Science Advisory Committee Long Range Plan for Nuclear Science.

Additional information on the activities of the Low-Energy Nuclear Physics Research Group and the Physics Division can be found at www.anl.gov/phy.

Faculty Hiring - Nuclear Physicist in the Physics Department at Hope College (Holland, MI, USA)

Hope College invites applications for a tenure-track position in experimental physics at the Assistant or Associate Professor level to begin in August 2025. The successful candidate will be expected to develop a vigorous, externally-funded research program in an area of experimental physics which includes undergraduate research students. Applications from all areas of experimental physics are welcome. Preference will be given to candidates that will engage in research in collaboration with the MoNA Collaboration and/or the SuN group at FRIB or that can engage students in ion beam work based around the department's 1.7 MV tandem accelerator. The successful candidate should demonstrate a broad understanding of physics across the undergraduate curriculum, enabling them to teach all levels of physics courses and laboratories, from introductory first-year physics to fourth-year advanced physics courses. Review of completed applications will be done as they are received. An initial subset of candidates will be asked to be available for a video interview. Applicants are encouraged to visit the department website at https://hope.edu/academics/physics/.
