Advance pion lifetime research onsite at TRIUMF in Vancouver by developing simulations and supporting detector research. Collaborate with beam line experts.This undergraduate student position contributes to designing a dedicated experiment targeting 0.01% relative uncertainty. You will develop M20 beam line and detector simulation packages using Geant4 and G4beamline. The work builds understanding of pion decay physics and experimental methods while supporting design decisions. Hands-on R&D involving SiPM-based detectors and silicon strip sensors is available for interested students. You will document daily work, present progress, and explain research to non-specialists.Key Responsibilities:Develop dedicated pion lifetime experiment simulationsBuild, run,
and debug Geant4 simulationsContinue developing M20 beam line packagesCollaborate with TRIUMF beam line expertsSupport detector R&D and design decisionsRequirements:Undergraduate student status meeting eligibility requirementsAbility to work safely with laboratory equipmentAbility to troubleshoot experimental setupsAbility to work independently and ask for helpAbility to document and present research progressDevelop simulation, detector, and communication skills while contributing to TRIUMF's pion lifetime experiment in Vancouver.
