Research Associate Position in Experimental Nuclear Physics at TUNL/Duke University
The Triangle Universities Nuclear Laboratory (TUNL) and the Department
of Physics at Duke University in Durham, North Carolina seek a
postdoctoral Research Associate with strong interest and experience in
experimental nuclear structure and nuclear reaction studies using gamma-ray
and neutron beams. The accelerator facilities at TUNL for general research
include the High-Intensity Gamma-ray Source (HIGS) and a tandem van de
Graaff accelerator. The HIGS facility has the most intense mono-energetic
and polarized gamma-ray beam in the world. This position is funded by
grants from the Department of Energy National Nuclear Security
Administration and the Department of Homeland Security Domestic Nuclear
Defense Office. The research associated with the position will be carried out
at HIGS using linearly polarized gamma-ray beams and in the tandem
laboratory using fast neutron beams.
Candidates should have a Ph.D. degree in physics and experience in
experimental nuclear physics research. Applications received before
February 28, 2013 will be considered. Applicants should submit a
curriculum vitae, a brief description of research experience and current
research activities, and should have three letters of recommendation sent to:
Duke University is an Equal Employment Opportunity/ Affirmative Action
