Deadline: 2016-08-31
Region: North America
Job description:
Open Date: 07/01/2015
Close Date: 08/31/2015
Description
Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory seeks highly qualified candidates for postdoctoral Research Associate positions to work on neutrino physics using liquid and gaseous argon detectors.
Fermilab has a strong and exciting research program with major commitments to a diverse range of liquid argon-based neutrino experiments including LArIAT, MicroBooNE, the short-baseline neutrino (SBN) program, and DUNE. The program also includes a new effort to build and operate a small gaseous argon TPC that will be deployed in a charged particle test beam and in the NuMI neutrino beam. Additional information on the Fermilab neutrino program can be found here: http://neutrino.fnal.gov.
Positions are for a period of up to three (3) years, with the potential for extension considered on a yearly basis thereafter. Every effort will be made to design the research program and maintain support for a Fermilab Research Associate so that she/he has the opportunity to produce physics results.
Respects, understands and values individual differences that embody the principles of diversity.
Abide by all environment, safety, and health regulations.
Qualifications and Essential Job Functions
· Ph.D. in particle physics, nuclear physics, or relevant subject by the time of the appointment.
· Successful candidates should have a strong record of recent accomplishments in experimental physics.
· Excellent oral and written communication skills.
· Will be expected to play a leading role in neutrino data analysis, TPC construction, and/or neutrino event generator advancement.
· Candidates should be comfortable using the C++ programming language.
· The ability to travel by automobile and/or commercial air carrier both domestically and internationally may be required.
Application Instructions
Interested candidates should submit via Academic Jobs Online: 1) Cover letter, 2) Curriculum Vitae, 3) Research Statement, 4) Publication List and 5) Three Reference Letters (to be submitted by the reference writers at the AJO site).

Physical Activity and Work Conditions
HUMAN FACTORS: Mental Concentration, Sitting, Tight Work Schedule, and Visually Demanding.
There is no legal requirement that Fermilab sponsor an employee for U.S. permanent residence. As a result, Fermilab will make the decision to sponsor an employee on a case-by-case basis. Fermilab will consider the following factors, among others, when determining whether to sponsor an employee for U.S. permanent residence: performance, length of service, long-term need for the position, and cost.
Diverse People, Diverse Jobs
Fermilab is an Equal Opportunity Employer. Minorities/Women/Disabled/Veterans are encouraged to apply.
