The Department of Physics at North Carolina A&T State University invites applications for a tenure track faculty position in the field of Astronomy or Astrophysics, starting in August 2024. The initial appointment is expected to be at the assistant professor level. An appointment at a higher rank might be considered for exceptionally qualified applicants. In particular, the Department is seeking qualified candidates who will develop a vigorous research program in observational studies under the above-mentioned fields. The Department of Physics has twelve faculty members (https://www.ncat.edu/cost/departments/physics/people/index.php) with active research areas that include experimental nuclear physics, astrophysics, chemical physics, biological and soft matter physics, computational physics, atmospheric sciences and meteorology, and condensed matter physics. The Department serves both undergraduate and graduate students at the MS and PhD level.
The ideal candidate will establish and maintain a vigorous, externally funded research program, collaborate with other faculty, and direct the research activities of both undergraduate and graduate students. Teaching undergraduate and graduate level courses. Other responsibilities include service to the Department, College, University, and the community.

Artificially intelligent gamma ray imaging detectors.
Position sensitivity in a semiconductor detector is obtained from the signals induced on a segmented electrode structure on the semiconductor crystal surface during collection of the electric charges created where radiation interacts; these charges being moved by an applied electric field. Advanced signal processing is needed to obtain optimum performance in terms of position and energy resolution as well as count rate capability. The best performance is obtained when applying artificial intelligence techniques. In the project, optimized artificial intelligence algorithms will be developed, using laboratory measurements with a state-of-the-art detector to provide training data. The resulting improved imaging capabilities will be quantified. This project will be performed in consultation with Dr. Andreas Hauptmann from Oulu University.
