<p class="MsoNormal" style="background:white"><span style="font-size:11.5pt;font-family:"Segoe UI",sans-serif;color:black;background:white">We are seeking an enthusiastic researcher with experience of experimental nuclear physics for an STFC-supported detector-development
programme on active-target technology for low-energy nuclear astrophysics measurements with radioactive beams. Expertise in the areas of active targets and/or gas detectors would be advantageous. The position is funded for 18 months. The appointed person
will be based at York and will spend extended periods at the TRIUMF Laboratory, Vancouver, Canada. </span><span style="font-size:11.5pt;font-family:"Segoe UI",sans-serif;color:black"><br>
<br>
<span style="background:white">The role will be to develop and characterise a state-of-the-art active target detector, based on Gas Electron Multipliers (GEMs) technology or similar, to increase the sensitivity to low-energy reaction products. You will also
characterise the electric field configuration and experience with GEANT4 would be desirable. As part of this role, you will work with colleagues at York and TRIUMF, on the pulse shape analysis algorithms for use in the data acquisition. </span><br>
<br>
<span style="background:white">The Department of Physics is at the forefront of pioneering global research and technological advancement in our world leading research centres, focused around biophysics, condensed matter physics, nuclear physics, and plasma
physics and fusion energy at the York Plasma Institute. As a Department we strive to provide a working environment which allows all staff and students to contribute fully, to flourish, and to excel. We aim to ensure that there is a supportive and egalitarian
culture at all levels and across all staff groups. We promote good practice and a strong culture of equality in higher education, and are proud of our Juno Champion Award and Athena SWAN Silver Award.</span><br>
