Post-Doctoral Researcher Position at JYFL-ACCLAB
07 November 2019
The Accelerator Laboratory of the Department of Physics, University of Jyväskylä is looking to fill a position as a post-doctoral researcher working in the Nuclear Spectroscopy Group.
The successful candidate will contribute in all activities of the Nuclear Spectroscopy group. The candidate will be expected to take a significant role in the experimental program to be carried out at the MARA and RITU recoil separators. The separators can be coupled to various arrays of germanium and silicon detectors for in-beam and decay spectroscopic studies of exotic nuclei along the proton dripline and towards the superheavy elements. Furthermore, a so-called low energy branch will be developed at MARA, whereby the products of fusion-evaporation reactions will be stopped in a gas cell and then transported for laser spectroscopic studies and mass measurements. The candidate will be expected to actively contribute to the physics program of the group.
The application deadline is 30th November, and further details can be found at the link below:

Postdoctoral Position at National Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory
30 October 2019
The National Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory (NSCL) invites applications from outstanding candidates for a fixed-term research associate (Postdoctoral Researcher) position in the area of experimental nuclear science, who will work in the research group of Prof. Jaideep Singh.
The successful candidate will work in the NSCL Spinlab group under the direction of Prof. Jaideep Taggart Singh, whose members focus on the tests of fundamental symmetries and precision measurements. Amongst others, Spinlab develops techniques to optically manipulate and probe atomic nuclei. The successful candidate is expected to take a leading role in the development and testing of a new general-purpose high-efficiency molecular beam source for use in electric dipole moment searches using rare highly-deformed nuclei. This work is part of the US DOE Office of Science Early Career Research Program Award titled “Towards a Next Generation Search for Time-Reversal Violation Using Optically Addressable Nuclei in Cryogenic Solids.”

Postdoctoral Position at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory
16 October 2019
We have a postdoctoral position open in the Nuclear and Particle Physics Group at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory. The successful candidate will play a major role in carrying out experiments that use trapped-ion samples to precisely study the beta decay of 8Li, 8B, and other light nuclei to test fundamental symmetries in nuclear beta decay and to better understand the structure of exotic nuclei. These experiments will be performed at radioactive beam facilities such as ANL and TRIUMF and the data analysis will involve the development of detailed simulations and an in-depth characterization of the apparatus.
This is a 2 year Postdoctoral appointment with the possibility of extension to a maximum of 3 years. Eligible candidates are recent PhDs within five years of the month of the degree award at time of hire date.
To apply for this position, or for additional information, please follow the link https://careers-llnl.ttcportals.com/jobs/4675640. Any questions regarding the position can be directed to Aaron Gallant (gallant3@llnl.gov) and Nicholas Scielzo (scielzo1@llnl.gov).
Review of applications will begin November 8th, 2019 and continue until the position is filled.
