Job Description
What You Will DoThe Space Nuclear Sensing Group (ISR-8) is seeking a Postdoctoral Researcher to contribute to national security programs involving on radiation detection and nuclear sensing.ISR-8 develops radiation sensing technologies and physics-based interpretation for x-ray, gamma-ray, and neutron detection in support of national security and space science missions. The group performs detector development, radiation transport modeling, and end-to-end mission systems analysis in close collaboration with engineering partners.The successful candidate will conduct research in radiation detection with emphasis on radiation data analysis and radiation transport modeling. Responsibilities include analyzing experimental radiation measurements, developing radiation transport simulations, and comparing detector data with simulated detector response.Candidates with experience in radiation detector physics, radiation transport simulations, or experimental radiation measurements are espe...
