Topic: Study of the chiral cross over with soft pions

The ALICE group at Physikalisches Institut is currently looking to fill a doctoral position at the Physikalisches Institute at the University of Heidelberg, Germany. The position is for 3 years (salary level TV-L E 13, 75%). The doctoral position is part of the Collaborative Research Center 1225 "Isolated quantum systems and universality in extreme conditions" (ISOQUANT).

The objective of the thesis project is the experimental and phenomenological study of soft pion yields and correlations with regard to the chiral crossover transition in heavy-ion collisions. The experimental part involves the measurement of soft pion observables within ALICE and work on extending current reconstruction methods to lower transverse momentum. The phenomenological work will be performed in close collaboration with Prof. Jürgen Berges (Heidelberg University), Dr. Aleksas Mazeliauskas (Heidelberg University) and Prof. Derek Teaney (Stony Brook University). We are looking for a doctoral student with a strong interest in nuclear and particle physics and a strong background in computing and programming with Python/C++/root.

Heidelberg University stands for equal opportunities and diversity. Qualified female candidates are especially invited to apply. Persons with severe disabilities will be given preference if they are equally qualified.

The collaborative and interdisciplinary research environment at CRC ISOQUANT offers generous travel support; seminars, workshops and rand retreats organized by the Young Researchers Covent.

The review of applications will start on February 10th, 2025. Please send applications as a single pdf file to:

Prof. Dr. Klaus Reygers (reygers@physi.uni-heidelberg.de).
