The ExoHad Collaboration invites applications for a Postdoctoral Associate position to advance its scientific goals in theoretical and phenomenological nuclear physics. The Exo(tic) Had(ron) Collaboration started in 2023 to explore all aspects of exotic hadron physics, from predictions within lattice QCD, through reliable extraction of their existence and properties from experimental data, to descriptions of their structure within phenomenological models (https://www.exohad.org/).
The position is grant-funded for 11 months with a possible extension for up to three years altogether depending on availability of funds and performance. Candidates with research interest in exotic spectroscopy, amplitude analysis, model building, or lattice QCD are sought. The minimal educational requirement is a theory-oriented PhD in nuclear/hadronic physics. The position will be administered through George Washington University and Indiana University, but can be taken up anywhere in the USA, with preference for UC Berkeley. The candidate will be a member of the ExoHad Collaboration and will interact frequently with collaboration members.
Job Duties:
- Advancing the science goals formulated in the exohad proposal (https://www.exohad.org/): In particular, theoretical nuclear physics in the sub-areas of lattice QCD or phenomenology to advance discovery and understanding exotic mesons.
- Publications of results.
- Dissemination of results at conferences and workshops; attendance and presentations at collaboration meetings.
In collaboration with experienced researchers, this role will participate in the planning and conduction of discovery research, data analysis and interpretation, preparation of materials for publication, presentations at conferences and meetings, and may develop new theories and methodologies. This role can expect timely advice as to research directions and career planning for a future independent career.
Performs other related duties as assigned. The omission of specific duties does not preclude the supervisor from assigning duties that are logically related to the position.
A Postdoctoral Associate:
- holds a PhD or equivalent degree;
- develops skills by participating in scholarly projects that are actively mentored by a member of the university faculty;
- receives financial support in the form of a salary that is typically funded by grants, contracts or departmental funds secured by a faculty mentor; and
- has a limited term of up to five years at GW.
Minimum Qualifications:
Qualified candidates will hold a Doctoral degree or comparable doctoral degree in a related discipline. Degree must be conferred by the start date of the position.
