Field of Interest:astro-ph, hep-ex
Experiments:MAGIC
Deadline: 2016-07-25
Region: Europe
Job description:
We offer a 2-year postdoctoral contract at the High Energy Physics Group of Universidad Complutense de Madrid (UCM-GAE http://cta.gae.ucm.es). The group participates in the MAGIC collaboration (http://wwwmagic.mppmu.mpg.de/), which runs two Cherenkov telescopes at the Canary island of La Palma. The group is also involved in the design and prototyping of the future international Cherenkov observatory CTA (Cherenkov Telescope Array http://portal.cta-observatory.org).
The candidate's research activity will focus on the analysis of MAGIC data, following the lines of research in which the group is involved, namely pulsar physics and the studies of extragalactic objects. The candidate might also participate in technical activities that the group develops in the CTA project, namely the trigger system of the telescope’s cameras and data modeling of the whole array.
We require a PhD in Physics with experience in High Energy Physics or Astroparticle Physics. Technical experience in any of these fields (either in hardware or software) will be also valuable.
Applicants should send their CVs and a statement of research interests before July 25th, 2016. They should also arrange 2 letters of reference to be sent before the expiration date. The contract is intended to start by October 17th.
