Position overview

A Postdoctoral Fellow is sought to join one of the world leading experimental low energy positron research teams. This position requires a candidate who will lead the day-to-day laboratory operations of the Australian National University Positron Research Group, with a focus on positron interactions relevant to processes in Positron Emission Tomography. The Postdoctoral Fellow will join a well-established team, led by Dr James Sullivan, and will be expected to contribute to the supervision of graduate and undergraduate research candidates as well as to the development of the experimental program, which is funded through the Australian Research Council. Experience in low energy charged particle scattering, and/or the operation of Surko trap and beam positron systems would be an advantage.

The Research School of Physics and Engineering is a world leading centre for research into a wide range of Physics, with a strong tradition of excellence. It contains one of the premier low-energy positron research groups, and the postdoctoral fellow will be expected to make  a positive contribution to the operation of the Research School.
