About this position
Marietta Blau Institute of Particle Physics (MBI) at the Austrian Academy of Sciences is recruiting a postdoctoral researcher to join its experimental high-energy nuclear physics programme in Vienna.
The position is centered on analysis of identified hadrons within the ALICE Collaboration at CERN. The research is aimed at improving understanding of the formation properties of the quark-gluon plasma produced in high-energy heavy-ion collisions. The work involves Run 3 data analysis, participation in ALICE collaboration meetings, and contribution to collaboration service work.
The institute is active across a broad experimental particle physics landscape, with major involvements in ALICE and CMS at CERN, the Belle II experiment at KEK, and several dark matter discovery experiments. The advertised post specifically emphasizes modern analysis approaches, including the use of machine learning, and expects short stays at CERN for detector shifts and internal ALICE meetings.
The successful candidate will join a highly motivated team working in state-of-the-art high-energy nuclear physics, with opportunities to attend international conferences and advanced training schools.
