<p class="MsoNormal">Dear Colleagues,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The research groups of the NEWS-G experiment (New Experiments with Spheres-Gas) and the Reactor Materials Testing Laboratory (RMTL) at Queen’s University (Kingston, ON, Canada) are looking to hire a Postdoctoral Fellow.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The NEWS-G (https://news-g.org) experiment led by Prof. Gilles Gerbier, involving 11 groups in North America and Europe, is dedicated primarily to the direct search of light Dark Matter particles underground. RMTL (https://rmtl.engineering.queensu.ca/)
is a state-of-the-art nuclear materials facility, which includes a 4MV tandem accelerator used to introduce radiation damage in materials and to generate neutrons for astroparticle physics experiments.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The Postdoctoral Fellow (PDF) will have an integral role in setting up a quasi-monoenergetic neutron beam at the RMTL’s proton accelerator facility to calibrate dark matter detectors in close collaboration with NEWS-G. The PDF’s work will
focus on building/developing the instrumentation for neutron generation and detection, with the goal of enabling quenching factor measurements on dark matter detectors.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The application deadline is 2020 Jun 28.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">With Nobel Prize winner Art McDonald, Queen’s University is home to one of the strongest astroparticle physics groups in Canada. Queen’s also hosts the Arthur B. McDonald Canadian Astroparticle Physics Research Institute, a partnership
between 13 universities and research institutes working to unite researchers, theorists and technical experts across Canada and internationally.<o:p></o:p></p>
