Explore pion lifetime measurement at TRIUMF in Vancouver, building Geant4 simulations and contributing to detector research. This student role supports experimental physics.As a Pion Lifetime Experiment Assistant, you will help design a dedicated experiment seeking 0.01% relative uncertainty. You will develop M20 beam line and detector simulation packages, collaborate with beam line experts, and support design decisions. The work includes dedicated simulations, detector R&D, and possible hands-on work with SiPM-based detectors and LGAD silicon strip sensors.Key Responsibilities:Build, run,



and debug Geant4 and G4beamline simulationsDevelop M20 beam line and detector simulation packagesCollaborate with TRIUMF beam line expertsSupport pion lifetime experiment design decisionsPresent progress through meetings, presentations, and postersRequirements:Undergraduate enrollment at an accredited post-secondary institutionAbility to work safely with laboratory equipmentAbility to troubleshoot experimental setupsAbility to work independently and request help when neededResume, covering letter, and academic transcriptDevelop particle physics research skills through simulations, detector R&D, documentation, and communication at TRIUMF in Vancouver.
