Opportunities

This position supports the development of research instrumentation in nuclear, particle, and astrophysics, as well as general laboratory operations at the Yale Wright Laboratory. The candidate is expected to work as part of a team of scientists, technical staff, students, and postdocs on the design, development, and construction of research instrumentation. Part of the work will focus on the assembly of detector components for the Deep Underground Neutrino Observatory (DUNE). Yale Wright Laboratory is one of two US assembly sites for the DUNE charge readout planes.

The Heeger group has an opening for a postdoctoral associate to study the nature and mass of neutrinos with the CUORE/CUPID and Project 8 experiments and a postdoc to be involved in DUNE. Contact Karsten Heeger directly for more information.

The Heeger group has openings for several students to work on the study of neutrinos with the DUNE experiment, the search for axion dark matter with ALPHA, and the study of neutrino mass with CUORE, CUPID and Project 8. Please contact Karsten Heeger directly to discuss your interest.

If you are a prospective student, please see Wright Lab’s information for prospectives.

Undergraduate research opportunities are available during both the academic year and the summer.  If you are interested in working on a project, please contact Karsten Heeger as soon as you are able, as positions fill up fast.
