Research Scientist for Nuclear Physics Experiments (Postdoc) | Forschungswissenschaftler (m/w/d) für Experimente im Bereich Kernphysik
GSI Helmholtzzentrum für Schwe rionenforschung GmbH
Job Summary
This 2-year postdoctoral position at the GSI Helmholtz Centre for Heavy Ion Research in Darmstadt offers a unique opportunity to contribute to cutting-edge nuclear physics experiments within the international FAIR (Facility for Antiproton and Ion Research) project, one of the world's largest research initiatives. The successful candidate will engage in research with exotic nuclei, participate in data analysis and interpretation of FAIR Phase-0 experiments, and contribute to scientific-technical developments using the FRS as a platform for Super-FRS early-science experiments. This role is ideal for a self-motivated individual with a strong background in experimental nuclear, atomic, or hadron physics, offering the chance to develop an individual scientific-technical profile within a world-class international research environment.
