> There will be a postdoctoral position available in the Symmetry  
> Energy Group (http://groups.nscl.msu.edu/hira/sep.htm) headed by  
> Professors Betty Tsang and Bill Lynch at the National  
> Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory, Michigan State University. The  
> new postdoc is expected to be involved with building the SAMURAI  
> Time-Projection-Chamber to be used in experiments to explore the  
> Nuclear Equation of State of Asymmetric matter with heavy ion  
> collisions at RIKEN. The results of these experiments will have  
> important implications on studies of the symmetry energy in the  
> Facility for Rare Isotope Beams (FRIB), a $640M project to be built  
> at Michigan State University.
>
> The successful candidates will be an integral member of the HiRA  
> research group, (http://groups.nscl.msu.edu/hira/) at NSCL and will  
> also be involved in the other research activities with the group.  
> These activities include exploring the symmetry energy using heavy  
> ion reactions at NSCL, GSI and RIKEN, as well as an active program  
> to study nuclear structure and reaction mechanisms using transfer  
> reactions with rare isotope beams. The successful candidate must  
> have the potential to acquire new working knowledge quickly, good  
> problem solving skills and is motivated to learn about properties of  
> nuclear matter. The following skills are desired but not required:  
> knowledge and experience in using GEANT4 simulations, ROOT analysis,  
> gas detectors, FPGA programming, TPC design and electronics. If  
> desired, the successful candidate will have opportunities to teach  
> and to mentor graduate and undergraduate students.

> Interested person should contact Prof. Betty Tsang at tsang_at_nscl.msu.edu
