Jefferson Lab invites applications for a post-doctoral research associate position in the Hall C group. The successful applicant will have the opportunity to participate in completing the installation and commissioning of the SHMS spectrometer and its detectors as well as participate in the initial Hall C 12 GeV era experiments. Physics topics of these experiments include proton structure functions, color transparency, the EMC effect, short range correlations and semi-inclusive deep inelastic scattering. Leadership roles on already approved proposals are possible by mutual agreement with experiment spokespersons.

A Ph.D. in experimental nuclear, particle, or high-energy astrophysics is required. Experience working with particle detectors and analyzing data is essential, and a background in lepton-nucleus physics would be beneficial. The appointment will be made initially for one year and is renewable for up to 3 years.

Applicants should send a curriculum vitae and arrange to have letters from three references sent to:
Erica Jones at eljones@jlab.org
