Post-Doctoral Fellowship - Postdoc at University of the Western Cape/iThemba LABS

We have an immediate opening for a post-doctoral research fellow in experimental

nuclear physics at the University of the Western Cape and iThemba LABS, in the

beautiful city of Cape Town, South Africa. The fellowship is for two years, with a

possibility of renewal for another additional year, contingent on performance and

funding.

Candidates must have a Ph.D. degree, or equivalent, and a strong record of published

research with significant contributions in the field of experimental low-energy

nuclear physics. Some familiarity with ROOT and GEANT4 is expected.

The UWC/iThemba LABS research group comprise a large number of members

involved in the study of nuclear structure and reactions, nuclear astrophysics and tests

of fundamental symmetries using both stable and radioactive ion beams. We have

active collaborations with other facilities in North America and Europe and are

simultaneously involved in the development of a local Radioactive Ion Beam

Demonstrator at iThemba LABS.

Interested applicants should email a brief statement of research (no more than 5

pages) and a curriculum vitae to Smarajit Triambak (striambak@uwc.ac.za). Three

letters of recommendation should also be arranged to be sent the same email address

independently.
