Postdoctoral Research Associate in Theoretical Nuclear Physics
Grade UE07: £40,247 to £47,874 per annum
College of Science & Engineering / School of Physics and Astronomy / Institute for Particle and Nuclear Physics
Full-time: 35 hours per week
24 months fixed term with possible extension
We are seeking an enthusiastic and motivated candidate for a Post-Doctoral Research Associate (PDRA) in Theoretical Nuclear Physics, with a strong connection to experimental investigations, within the Edinburgh Nuclear Physics Group in the School of Physics & Astronomy.
The Opportunity:
The School of Physics and Astronomy seeks to appoint a strong candidate to a full-time, fixed-term research position within the Edinburgh Nuclear Physics Group.
The appointed PDRA will work in the group of Prof. Marialuisa Aliotta (PI) to conduct research in theoretical nuclear physics for the UKRI-funded ERC Advanced Grant “NUCLEAR: NUclear Clustering Effects in Astrophysical Reactions”. The appointed PDRA will develop and apply ab initio reaction modelling methods to support experimental research within the group, addressing key questions in nuclear astrophysics. Working closely with the PI and partner G. Hupin (IJCLab), the PDRA will contribute to, and utilize, a set of tools designed for these purposes. The PDRA will maintain close ties with the PI's research team, providing ab initio input for R-matrix global fits of experimental data and contributing to the evaluation of astrophysical reaction rates.
The level of appointment for the PDRA post will be determined by the selection panel depending on the experience of the successful candidate.
This post is full-time (35 hours per week). However, we are open to considering flexible working patterns or requests for hybrid working (on a non-contractual basis) that combines a mix of remote and regular on-campus working.
Your application should include a motivation letter detailing skills and experience relevant for the post, together with a full CV and an up-to-date list of peer-reviewed publications. The names of two referees should also be provided.
