Physicist Postdoctoral Fellow - Postdoc at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory

Berkeley Lab’s Nuclear Science Division has an opening for a Physicist Postdoctoral Fellow. You will initiate and contribute to heavy-ion analyses of ALICE or STAR data, spin-physics analyses of STAR data, and/or to detector R&D towards a future Electron-Ion Collider experiment.

What You Will Do:

• Analyze heavy-ion experiments from ALICE at the LHC or STAR at RHIC.

• Analyze spin-physics data from the STAR experiment.

• Participate in data taking and calibrations.

• Detector R&D with state-of-the-art Si technology for a future Electron-Ion Collider experiment.

What Is Required:

• Ph.D. in physics, nuclear and high-energy physics, or a closely related field, within the last two years.

• Experience with modern data analysis, simulation, and computer programming techniques and tools.

• Demonstrated proficiency in written and oral dissemination of scientific results.

• Ability to advise and coach graduate and undergraduate student assistants in research.
