POSITION SPECIFICS The Eberly College of Science, Department of Physics at The Pennsylvania State University is seeking to fill one Postdoctoral Researcher position in the area of Neutrino Physics . The successful candidate will have the opportunity to work on the Project 8 Neutrino Mass Experiment and on detector R&D. The Project 8 experiment seeks to determine the neutrino mass via the precise measurement of the electron energy in beta decays. We have developed and demonstrated the viability of a novel technique called Cyclotron Radiation Emission Spectroscopy (CRES), which allows single electron detection and characterization through the measurement of cyclotron radiation emitted by magnetically-trapped electrons produced by a gaseous radioactive source. We are currently working on the design of a large scale detector aimed at measuring the neutrino mass. In this position you will report to Dr. de Viveiros, and your responsibilities will include leading detector R&D at the Penn State laboratory; work in the design and construction of the next phase of the Project 8 experiment, with a focus on signal acquisition systems using resonant cavities for a large tritium detector; simulations and analysis of Project 8 detector signals; analysis of existing and future science data of the Project 8 experiment. Requirements include a Ph.D. in Physics, and the ideal candidate should have experience with experimental particle astrophysics, nuclear physics, particle physics or a related field. Applications must be submitted electronically and include a cover letter, CV and statement of research interests. Applicants should arrange for three reference letters to be submitted to physicsapply@psu.edu indicating the appropriate job number in the subject line. This is a term appointment funded for one year from date of hire, with possibility of renewal. Review of applications will begin immediately and continue until a suitable candidate is found. Informal inquiries about this post may be made to: ldeviveiros@psu.edu BACKGROUND CHECKS/CLEARANCES Employment with the University will require successful completion of background check(s) in accordance with University policies.
