The postdoctoral fellow will be a member of the “Nuclear Structure” research team at LPC-Caen. The group’s work focusses on the structure of nuclei far from stability using direct reactions. The present position will support the group’s investigations of neutron-rich nuclei at the RIBF facility at RIKEN (Japan). In particular, the postdoctoral fellow will be a member of the STRASSE and SAMURAI collaborations. As such, they be involved in the commissioning of and first experiments with the STRASSE Si-strip vertex tracking system, as well as the experimental programme with the recently commissioned NEBULA-Plus fast neutron array at SAMURAI.

Involvement in the development of a new large-scale scintillator array (HYPATIA) for in-beam gamma ray spectroscopy is also envisaged. The successful applicant will also be involved in the analysis and publication of data acquired in previous campaigns of experiments at the RIBF with the SAMURAI setup and/or with the HICARI Ge-array.
