Postdoctoral Position
Experimental Hadronic Physics
College of William and Mary
The hadronic physics group at the College of William and Mary seeks a
postdoctoral research associate in experimental hadronic physics. Close
proximity to Jefferson Lab (15 miles) allows William and Mary to
maintain a large research group with activity in all three experimental
halls focusing mostly on nucleon structure studies through
electromagnetic and parity-violating electron scattering. The candidate
is expected to take a leading role in the execution and subsequent data
analysis of a series of measurements in Halls A and B at Jefferson Lab
using polarized beams and targets. The position includes opportunities
to develop hardware for polarized targets and/or detector systems and
software for data analysis. The candidate will be stationed full-time at
Jefferson Lab, with occasional research obligations at the College of
William and Mary, will be encouraged to develop research interests of
his/her own, and may have the opportunity to teach if desired.
Candidates should have a Ph.D. in experimental nuclear or particle
physics, and a strong background in the hardware and data-analysis
associated with experimental nuclear physics. The position is for one
year initially, but may be renewed for up to two additional years upon
mutual agreement.
Review of applications will begin immediately and will continue until
the position has been filled. Applicants should send a curriculum vitae
and arrange for three letters of reference to:
