Opportunities for postdocs, graduates and undergraduates:

Our Department is now recruiting PhD and MSc students to start mid-2025 on EIC and Jefferson Lab research.

If you are interested in joining our group, working at the interface between nuclear and particle physics, please contact me.

Post-doctoral Research Fellows:

Our group's research projects have expanded in scope in recent years to take advantage of the many scientific opportunities that are available. We are particularly interested in recent Ph.D. graduates who can secure funding through the NSERC postdoctoral fellowship program. Please visit the NSERC website for more information on the various types of fellowships that are available, or contact Dr. Huber directly.

Research projects that you could make major contributions to include:

• Experiments in JLab Hall C, such as our planned measurement of the K⁺ and pi⁺ electric form factors.
• Detector work for the Solenoidal Large Intensity Detector (SoLID) at JLab.
• Feasiblity studies of exclusive meson production high at Q² at the future Electron-Ion Collider (EIC).

Graduate Students:

One of the top 10 unsolved problems in physics is the nature of the strong force where quark confinement dominates. I.E. it is poorly understood how quark and gluon interactions lead to the observed structure of nuclear matter. We are seeking motivated graduate students to join our experiments, which will take data with unprecedented accuracy, leading to a better understanding of the underlying quark-gluon structure of these particles. The research involves highly-ranked experiments of pion, kaon form factors and studies of backward angle meson production at Jefferson Laboratory (USA). We are also contributing detectors for the Solenoidal Large Intensity Device (SoLID) at Jefferson Lab, and performing studies for a future Electron-Ion Collider. Our graduate program enables students to quickly start their research upon admission, acquiring significant computing and hardware skills, leading to well-rounded scientists, with good critical thinking, leadership and teamwork skills.
