Job description:
The Indiana University High Energy group on the ATLAS experiment at the Large Hadron Collider seeks an outstanding applicant for a postdoctoral associate position, beginning at a negotiated date. It is expected to last for three years, subject to funding availability and satisfactory performance. Applicants should have a Ph.D. in High Energy Particle Physics demonstrating experience in physics analysis, preferably on a colliding beam experiment. Experience with detector hardware, electronics or computing is also valuable.  The successful applicant will be expected to reside at CERN.The Indiana University High Energy group on the ATLAS experiment at the Large Hadron Collider seeks an outstanding applicant for a postdoctoral associate position, beginning at a negotiated date.

The ATLAS Indiana group participates in a wide range of physics analyses, including Vector Boson Fusion, Vector Boson Scattering, Higgs, B Physics and exotic particle searches. We have had responsibilities for the design and fabrication of the barrel transition radiation tracker (TRT) and have continuing roles in TRT operations. We are also involved in the development of ATLAS Phase I and Phase II upgrades to the Level-1 calorimeter trigger, specifically the global feature extractor (gFEX) that will trigger on boosted objects and global event quantities. In addition, we operate an ATLAS Tier 2 computing site at Indiana University in collaboration with the University of Chicago and U. Illinois, Urbana-Champaign.  The successful candidate will be expected to take on leading roles in both physics analysis and hardware or software work.
 
Applicants should send a curriculum vitae, a list of publications, a statement of research interests, and arrange to have at least three letters of recommendation submitted through the application portal located at http://indiana.peopleadmin.com/postings/2099.
 
Questions about the submission process or the position please contact Rick Van Kooten Physics Department Indiana University 727 E. Third St. Bloomington, IN 47405, 812-855-1247 or rvankoot@indiana.edu. Review of applications will begin on Dec. 31st and continue until the position is filled.
