Field of Interest:hep-ex
Experiments:CERN-LHC-ATLAS
Deadline: 2017-05-31
Region: Europe
Job description:
astroparticle physics from both experimental and theoretical perspectives. One main
research activity is the participation in the ATLAS experiment at the Large Hadron Collider
(LHC) at CERN. The ATLAS collaboration investigates the consistency of the Standard
Model with very high precision, and also extends the search for physics beyond the
Standard Model to unprecedented accelerator energies.
The ATLAS Calorimeter Group at the institute has contributed to the design, construction
and operation of the ATLAS Hadronic Endcap Calorimeter (HEC). Our present R&D activity
focuses on the front-end electronics for the endcap calorimeter. Analyses of ATLAS data in
the group focus on top-quark physics and vector boson production, both in final states
involving jets.
We invite applications for a postdoctoral position in experimental particle physics to
strengthen our calorimeter group. The successful candidate is expected to make significant
contributions to the analysis of ATLAS data and the operation of the ATLAS liquid argon
calorimeters. In addition, participation in our R&D activities for new front-end electronics is
required. Candidates should hold a PhD or equivalent in particle physics and have
experience in detector R&D and data analysis.
Salary and benefits are according to the German public service pay scale (TVöD Bund).
The contract is limited to three years. The Max Planck Society is an equal opportunity
employer committed to increasing the participation of women wherever they are
underrepresented. The Max Planck Society is committed to employing more handicapped
individuals and especially encourages them to apply.
For questions concerning the position offered please contact Dr. Sven Menke
(menke@mpp.mpg.de). Interested scientists should send their application, including a CV
and a list of publications until May 31, 2017. Applicants should also arrange for three
letters of recommendation to be received by the same date at the following address:
