阿拉巴马大学在EXO-200和nEXO博后职位

The nuclear physics group at the University of Alabama invites applications for a postdoctoral position. The group plays a role in data analysis of the ongoing EXO-200 neutrinoless double-beta decay (DBD) experiment, is responsible for the operation of its cosmic ray veto system, and is responsible for low level radioactivity measurements and Monte Carlo simulations for the next generation 136Xe DBD experiment, nEXO.

Candidates should have a background in experimental nuclear or particle physics. Experience in detector operation and development (especially noble liquid detectors), data analysis (ROOT), Monte Carlo simulations (Geant4), and low background counting would be advantageous. Applications by entry level and more experienced candidates will be considered. Candidates need to have a Ph.D. in physics at the time of appointment. Ph.D. candidates should indicate when they are expecting to fulfill their Ph.D. requirements. The appointment is initially for one year with the possibility of renewal for up to three years.
