Postdoctoral position with Virginia Tech: https://careers.pageuppeople.com/968/cw/en-us/job/534266/postdoctoral-a…

The nuclear physics group of Prof. M. Boër at Virginia Tech is inviting applications for a postdoctoral research associate position or senior research associate position. The successful candidate will work on designing future experiments aiming at measuring Double Deeply Virtual Compton Scattering at Jefferson Lab, in Hall A with the SoLID spectrometer and in Hall C in a dedicated setup. Our group is currently developing GEANT4 simulations and making physics projections. Our goal is to improve the design of the SoLID muon detector and preparing a proposal for a dedicated experiment in Hall C. If the candidate has experience with data analysis in the GlueX collaboration, we will consider the possibility to analyze data in support to the Generalized Parton Distributions program. The successful candidate is expected to work closely with our collaborators, including other postdocs and students. The position will be based full time at Jefferson Lab, Newport News, VA. Note that this is a limited term appointment with an end date of May 2026 and no possibility for renewal. Review of applications starts immediately and the position will remain open until filled.
