The group is also active in the UC EIC Consortium developing a scientific research program at EIC jointly with other UC campuses. The successful candidate is expected to spend 50% time on EIC program including simulations and hardware project related to the development of a calorimeter system in the hadron endcap region within the ATHENA detector configuration. The other 50% time may be devoted to the current RHIC STAR/sPHENIX research program depending on candidate’s interest and experience. 

Candidates should submit a CV and a brief description of research interest to Professor Huan Zhong Huang electronically at huang AT physics.ucla.edu.
