Field of Interest:hep-ex
Experiments:CERN-LHC-CMS
Deadline: 2017-05-31
Region: North America
Job description:
The University of Minnesota Physics Department has an immediate
opening for a Post-doctoral research associate to work on the
Compact Muon Solenoid (CMS) experiment at the CERN Large Hadron
Collider.
The CMS group at the University of Minnesota (Mans, Rusack, Kubota)
has leading roles in the calorimeters of the CMS detector, including
the development of innovative uTCA electronics for the CMS Hadron
Calorimeter electronics and key efforts in the operation and
calibration of the Electromagnetic calorimeter. The group is also
playing a leading role in the development of the new CMS endcap
calorimeter for the High-Luminosity LHC. Group members have
leadership roles in CMS physics analyses with interests ranging from
searches for exotic particles to Higgs and electroweak physics.
The successful applicant will be primarily based at CERN and will be
expected to make significant contributions to data analysis and to
the operation of the hadron calorimeter, as well as having an
opportunity for involvement in the development of the endcap
calorimeter upgrade.
The group is looking for an outstanding applicant who has obtained,
or is about to obtain, a Ph.D. in Experimental Particle Physics.
Applicants should submit a cover letter, CV, and statement of
research interests by email to physics-cms-postdoc-search@umn.edu
and arrange for three letters of reference to be sent to the same
address.
The review of applications will begin immediately and will continue
until the position is filled. For inquiries, please contact
jmmans@umn.edu.
