Computational Physicist
Position SummaryFRIB is a new premier facility for studying rare isotopes' properties to understand better nuclei physics, nuclear astrophysics, fundamental interactions, and societal applications. The FRIB includes the highest energy continuous wave superconducting heavy-ion linear accelerator (linac) and Advanced Rare Isotope Separator (ARIS). State-of-the-art computational tools utilizing high-performance computing are essential for accurately modeling and high-speed optimization to determine the best operational parameters for the linac and ARIS. Developing novel software packages to enhance ARIS performance is an excellent opportunity for computational and beam physicists.
