Particle Theory and Cosmology - Postdoc at IBS, Daejeon

 

The Particle Theory and Cosmology (PTC) group (http://ctpu.ibs.re.kr) at the Center for Theoretical Physics of the Universe (CTPU) in Korea invites applications for several research fellow positions in Theoretical High Energy Physics and Cosmology, broadly defined, which can start in the fall of 2017. The initial appointments will be for 2 years, and can be extended for an additional year subject to the performance and funding.

 

CTPU is a rapidly growing center with a strong support from the government as one of the IBS centers (http://www.ibs.re.kr). The PTC group at CTPU currently consists of 6 faculty members (Kiwoon Choi, Kenji Kadota, Sanghyeon Chang, Hye-Sung Lee, Myeonghun Park and Kyu Jung Bae) and 15 postdoctoral research fellows. English is an official language in the center.

 

The interests of our group cover broad areas of high energy physics and cosmology, including the physics beyond the standard model, collider phenomenology, dark matter, and early Universe phenomenology.

 

We have strong ties to the cosmology group at KASI (http://cosmology.kasi.re.kr). We also have close relations with the experimental groups hosted by IBS, the Center for Axion and Precision Physics Research (CAPP, http://capp.ibs.re.kr) and the Center for Underground Physics (CUP,http://cupweb.ibs.re.kr). 

 

Applications should consist of a CV, a publication list, a research statement and at least three letters of recommendation, and be submitted through Academic Jobs Online (https://academicjobsonline.org/ajo/jobs/8395).
