2024-1 Recruitment Announce for Postdoctoral Research Associate Position at the Center for Underground Physics

1. Postdoctoral research associate positions on COSINE-100 and/or NEON experiments at IBS (Institute for Basic Science)

The center for underground physics (CUP, https://cupweb.ibs.re.kr/html/cup_en/) at IBS in Korea invites applications for a postdoctoral research associate position to work on operation and physics analysis of ongoing COSINE-100 and NEON experiment as well as preparation for next phase COSINE-200 experiment. The position is full-time for an initial one-year and extendable up to three-year. Candidates should have a Ph.D. in the past 5 years or within next three months.

The COSINE project (https://cosine.ibs.re.kr) is a dedicated experiment to verify an observation of DAMA/LIBRA’s annual modulation using same NaI(Tl) target crystals. The COSINE-100 experiment started physics run since Sept/2016 with 106 kg low-background NaI(Tl) crystal detectors. The COSINE-100 is moving to new underground laboratory, Yemilab, Jeonseon Korea. A couple of interesting physics results were already produced and further physics analyses are actively ongoing. We will start the COSINE-100 upgrade experiment in 2024.

The NEON experiment (https://neon.ibs.re.kr) has an aim for a first observation of the coherent neutrino nucleus scattering from reactor using NaI(Tl) detectors. The NEON phase1 installed at Hanbit nuclear power plant since Dec/2021 with 16 kg NaI(Tl) crystals. Physics analysis and detector maintenance are actively ongoing.

The successful candidate will mainly work on the installation and operation as well as physics analysis, with mentoring Ph.D students, for the COSINE-100 upgrade and NEON experiment. He/She may also contribute to development of low-background NaI(Tl) crystals as low-background treatment, detector assembly, underground measurement, and analysis for the COSINE-200 experiment. Frequent travelling to and staying at the experimental site will be expected.

2. Postdoctoral research associate positions on Astroparticle physics experiment using low temperature detectors

The Center for Underground Physics at Institute for Basic Science, Daejeon in South Korea has immediate openings for Postdoctoral research associates in underground astroparticle physics. Successful candidates will be involved in low-temperature detector development for experiments on astroparticle physics including searches for neutrinoless double beta decay (AMoRE). Collaborative research on new experiments on low-mass dark matter detection and novel detector technologies will be a part of the activities. Most of the work will be carried in IBS laboratories in Daejeon and Yemilab at Jeounseon.
