The contract can be extended up to 24 months, provided a satisfactory evaluation outcome after the first 12 months.

Duties and Responsibilities:

  • Taking part in the analysis of heavy-ion collision data at RHIC recorded by the STAR detector in order to study two-particle correlations;
  • Taking part in the Monte Carlo data analysis for the CBM experiment
  • Joining the STAR and CBM collaborations and the relevant Physics Working Group, participating in weekly deliberations and active participation in its meetings (at least every few weeks);
  • Taking part in data-taking (experimental shifts);

  • Experience in the field of physics of "soft" processes;
  • Knowledge of experimental measurements with the use of particle correlation techniques;
  • Knowledge of MC generators and detector simulations.

Additional information:

  • Domestic and international travels
  • The position is currently for a year and may be renewed for another year, depending on performance.
  • Employment status

It is a full-time, 100% research position with no teaching obligations. However, the successful candidate will have an opportunity to supervise B.Sc . and M.Sc (and partially Ph.D.) students and teach selected classes.
