PhD Position in Nuclear Physics: Studies of Baryon Resonances in Heavy Ion Collisions

This PhD project focuses on exploring the dynamics of heavy-ion collisions and the properties of strongly interacting matter at moderate temperatures and high net baryon densities. Based at Université Paris-Saclay's Laboratoire de Physique des deux Infinis Irène Joliot-Curie, the candidate will adapt and extend an innovative iterative analysis method to process large datasets from the HADES spectrometer. The work involves multi-differential data analysis, collaboration with theoretical physicists, and participation in the international HADES collaboration. The successful applicant is expected to contribute actively to data processing, model interpretation, and scientific dissemination.

• Extend and adapt an iterative analysis method to extract resonance signals from HADES experimental datasets
• Perform multi-differential analyses examining invariant mass, transverse momentum, and rapidity
• Process large datasets from Ag+Ag and Au+Au collision experiments
• Cooperate closely with theoretical physics experts to interpret experimental results
• Integrate findings into dynamical models of heavy-ion collisions
• Participate in meetings and collaborative activities within the international HADES collaboration
