Postdoctoral Research Associate

Center for Exotic Nuclear Studies (CENS, https://www.ibs.re.kr/cens/ ) at Institute for Basic Science (IBS), South Korea, is seeking creative, dynamic candidates who can join and help the Center grow by leading experiments and theoretical studies on exotic nuclei, data analysis, and development of detectors. Two senior researcher and three postdoctoral research associate positions are open at this time.

The successful candidate will work in the center at the main campus of IBS in Daejeon, South Korea. Founded in December 2019, the IBS Center for Exotic Nuclear Studies (CENS) carries out experiments on nuclear astrophysics, nuclear structure and nuclear reaction using rare isotope accelerators overseas. CENS also has a theory group to carry out independent research and support its experimental efforts. Starting from this year, the Center will also conduct research that can best utilize a rare isotope accelerator complex in South Korea, named Rare isotope Accelerator complex for ON line experiments (RAON). Furthermore, CENS is working to develop state-of-the-art detectors for research on structures and reactions of exotic nuclei, measurement of nuclear reactions in explosive stellar events, discovery of new rare isotopes, and exotic nuclear physics experiments.
