Full-Time
Regular/Temporary:
Post Doctorate
Requires a Ph.D. in experimental nuclear or particle physics. The STAR Group in the Physics Department at BNL has an opening for a postdoctoral research associate position to work on the analysis of data related to heavy flavor production in heavy ion collisions. RHIC and STAR are currently undergoing a number of upgrades to increase accelerator luminosity and detector capabilities, the first results of which are expected in 2010. These upgrades have dramatically improved STARâ??s capabilities to examine quarkonia and open heavy flavor. We are seeking a talented individual to actively participate in this effort. Experience in experimental particle or high energy nuclear physics and knowledge of hardware, computing and data analysis are highly desirable. The successful candidate is also expected to spend a fraction of his/her time on the development of a High Level Trigger (HLT) to tag events of interest for rapid analysis and/or a Muon Telescope Detector (MTD) to measure muons from heavy flavor decays. STAR is a large collider detector experiment at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider to search for a new state of matter thought to have existed shortly after the creation of the universe. Under the direction of J. Dunlop. Physics Department. BNL policy states that Research Associate appointments may be made to those who have received their doctoral degrees within the past five years.
