Field of Interest:hep-ex
Experiments:KEK-BF-BELLE-II
Deadline: 2017-11-15
Region: Asia
Job description:
The experimental particle physics group at Tel Aviv University invites applications for a postdoctoral research fellow with the Belle-II experiment at the SuperKEKB e+e- collider at the KEK laboratory in Tsukuba, Japan. The experiment is scheduled to begin collecting physics data in 2018, eventually reaching a 40-fold increase in instantaneous luminosity over its predecessor.
The successful applicant will be expected to play a leading role in software development and data analysis, optimizing the use of the large data set and the capabilities of the detector to make substantial contributions to central topics in particle physics. Interest in detector hardware or commissioning may also be accommodated. The position will become available on October 16, 2017. Initial appointment will be for 2 years, with the possibility of extension depending on mutual agreement and the availability of funding. A PhD in particle physics or nuclear physics is required, with experience in data analysis and a proven record of excellence. Familiarity with flavor physics is a potential advantage, but not required.
Please send a cover letter and CV to Prof. Abner Soffer at asoffer@tau.ac.il, and arrange for three or more letters of recommendations to be sent independently. The review of applications will begin immediately, until the position is filled.
