ATTENTION MILITARY AFFILIATED JOB SEEKERS. Our organization works with partner companies to source qualified talent for their open roles. The following position is available to Veterans, Transitioning Military, National Guard and Reserve Members, Military Spouses, Wounded Warriors, and their Caregivers. If you have the required skill set, education requirements, and experience, please click the submit button and follow the next steps. Unless specifically stated otherwise, this role is "On‑Site" at the location detailed in the job post.
The National Synchrotron Light Source is a state‑of‑the‑art, medium‑energy (3‑billion‑electron‑volt, or GeV) electron storage ring that produces x‑rays up to 10,000 times brighter than the NSLS. The mission of the National Synchrotron Light Source is to provide extremely bright x‑rays for basic and applied research in biology and medicine, materials and chemical sciences, geosciences and environmental sciences, and nanoscience. To support this program, the NSLS‑II must design, fabricate, assemble, test, install, and operate unique research equipment to generate, transport, transfer, accelerate and focus electron and X‑ray beams. This includes a combination of custom designed and built parts and vendor produced components developed by a collaboration of the NSLS‑II scientific, engineering, and technical staff. NSLS‑II supports an international user community of over 2,200 researchers from 400 universities. NSLS‑II performs all these functions in an environmentally responsible and safe manner, under a rigorous conduct of operations approach.
Position Description. NSLS‑II is seeking a Postdoctoral Research Associate to participate in our research program focused on using data‑driven chaos indicators for optimization of nonlinear dynamic systems and application in accelerator design and operation. The appointment will be for 3 years.
Essential Duties And Responsibilities
Work on a DoE funded Field Work Proposal
Work with accelerator physics and engineering experts on online optimization of the NSLS‑II accelerator complex
Working with accelerator physics and engineering experts to create a digital twin for the NSLS‑II accelerator complex
Work with NSLS‑II upgrade workgroup on the design and optimization of the NSLS‑IIU lattice candidates
Give presentations and report ongoing work
Present technical papers at conferences and publish in peer‑reviewed journals
Auto req ID: 462028BR
Minimum Education Required: Ph. D
Job Category: Research
Additional Qualifications/Responsibilities Required Knowledge, Skills, and Abilities:
Ph.D. degree in physics or related discipline, with a concentration in accelerators physics and nonlinear dynamics
Experience in working with particle accelerators through the control systems
Knowledge of one or more programming language for physics simulations, accelerator commissioning and data analysis, such as Python, Julia
Ability to perform detailed simulations of the physical processes being studied. This includes the simulation of particle beams and their transport in complex ring lattices using the codes ELEGANT, BMAD, or MAD
Some fundamental knowledge on machine learning, data science and related numerical tools, such as Scilearn-kit, PyTorch
Preferred Knowledge, Skills, And Abilities
Knowledge of particle accelerators and emerging particle acceleration techniques and technologies
Experience with Python, MatLab or Julia programming language in online machine control
Knowledge of machine learning, data science and related numerical tools, such as Scilearn-kit, PyTorch
Environmental, Health & Safety Requirements May be required to occasionally work off‑hours, nights and/or weekends to support mission critical projects.
Other Information
Work arrangement: On‑site
Candidates must have received a Ph.D. by the commencement of employment.
BNL policy requires that after obtaining their PhD, eligible candidates for research associate appointments may not exceed a combined total of 5 years of relevant work experience as a post‑doc and/or in an R&D position, excluding time associated with family planning, military service, illness or other life‑changing events.
