Job description:
The Theoretical High-Energy Particle Physics Group at the Physics Department of the Technical University Munich plans to make several appointments (salary scale TvL E13) at the postdoctoral level. The appointment is for two years starting in the fall of 2016. It may be extended by one year subject to funding. The appointment is foreseen in the area of particle physics phenomenology (including dark matter).
The Theoretical High-Energy Particle Physics Group at TUM currently consists of Prof. Beneke, Prof. Buras, Prof. Garbrecht, Dr. Frederix, Prof. Ibarra, Prof. Ratz, and Prof. Weiler, and a significant number of postdoctoral fellows, PhD and master students. The interests of the group cover a wide range of topics in particle physics phenomenology and field theory (theoretical collider physics and LHC phenomenology, flavour and top quark physics, CP violation, strong interactions, extensions of the standard model, neutrinos), and in physics of the early universe and cosmology (dark matter, baryo- and leptogenesis, inflation, CMB and cosmic perturbations). The vicinity of the TUM Institute for Advanced Study, the Max-Planck Institutes for Physics, and for Astrophysics and the Ludwig-Maximilians University, and in particular of the cluster of excellence "Origin and Structure of the Universe" and the Munich Institute for Astro- and Particle Physics (MIAPP), provides in addition a stimulating environment for research. Further information can be obtained from
http://www.tpp.ph.tum.de/en/home-page/
or by contacting M. Beneke, R. Frederix or A. Weiler.
Applicants should provide a curriculum vitae, a list of publications, and a brief description of their research interests (all in a single pdf file). Applications should be addressed to any of the three above and sent to the e-mail address
particlepostdoc@ph.tum.de
before December 1, 2015. In addition, the applicant should arrange to have three letters of recommendation sent to the same address.
