Job description:
The institute of high energy physics (IHEP) of Chinese Academy of Science in Beijing is opening two Postdoc positions on the detector design and Software development for the CEPC.
The physics objectives of the future e+e- Higgs factory are precise measurement of Higgs properties and searching for new physics signals. The design and optimisation of the detector, as well as the development of the key softwares are crucial for this project.
The postdoc fellows are expected to play important roles in the detector optimisation studies with massive Monte-Carlo simulation and reconstruction, as well as reconstruction and analysis algorithm/tools development. A Ph.D degree in experimental physics and is requires. Experiences in Geant 4 simulation, grid computing and software development are appreciated.
This appointment will be for a period of two years with a possible extension for another two years.
The successful applicants will be based in IHEP, close to down-town Beijing. IHEP is a national lab and premier high energy physics centre of China. IHEP host the BEPS collider in its campus and has over 1,400 employees with strong support in all aspects of experimental high-energy physics.
Interested candidates should send the curriculum vitae, a statement of research interests (motivation letter), a list of publications and arrange three letters of recommendation to be sent directly to Dr.Manqi RUAN (Manqi.ruan@ihep.ac.cn) and Ms. Tianhong Xing (xingth@ihep.ac.cn) with a subject title Postdoc Search 1112016.
