Tenure-track position in theoretical nuclear physics at Université Paul Sabatier / Laboratoire des 2 Infinis – Toulouse (L2IT) (France)
24 March 2023
A tenure track position in Theoretical Nuclear Physics is proposed within the nuclear physics team of Laboratoire des 2 Infinis - Toulouse (L2IT, Toulouse - IN2P3 - CNRS / Université Toulouse III - Paul Sabatier).
After a pre-tenure period of 4 years, the successful candidate is eligible for tenure at the CNRS as a Senior Staff Scientist (« Directeur de Recherche » in French) in the nuclear physics team at L2IT. The successful candidate will benefit from a competitive support package.
Nuclear physics is concerned with understanding the properties of atomic nuclei and nuclear matter in heavy ion collisions and compact stars. Theoretical physics and numerical modeling activities play a leading role and make very important contributions to the improvement of our knowledge of the complex properties of atomic nuclei. This numerical contribution is more and more essential today, for the understanding of nuclear matter under extreme conditions and of exotic systems located at the limits of existence in nature;in a context where projects for new facilities for nuclear physics have just been proposed or are under construction, for example the SPIRAL2 project of our national facility GANIL. A key aspect of the research at IN2P3 is to establish the link between the infinitely small and the infinitely large. Thus, advances in nuclear physics in the laboratory are used in particular in the context of nuclear astrophysics and the simulation of nuclear processes in stars and other celestial objects.
Scientific profile:
Nuclear physics today not only aims at an understanding of the most complex processes within nuclei from fundamental principles, but also uses the knowledge acquired to describe the processes at work in extreme systems, such as astrophysical objects, an example of which are neutron stars. More and more sophisticated models in their formal and numerical aspects are developed today for the treatment of the nuclear N-body problem. Important efforts are also devoted to the understanding and construction of the nuclear interaction based on a completely microscopic basis, for its use in so-called 'ab-initio' approaches. The development of highly complex models for atomic nuclei and studies of the nuclear interaction make an essential and unique contribution to the improvement of our knowledge of nuclear structure and reactions, as well as to the description of objects of interest in nuclear astrophysics. For example, this research has an impact on the development of models of nucleosynthesis and on the formulation of the equation of state of nuclear matter. The skills required are formal and numerical skills for the theoretical modeling of nuclear N-body systems.
