Field of Interest:hep-ex, hep-ph, nucl-ex
Experiments:CERN-LHC-CMS
Deadline: 2016-05-29
Region: North America
Job description:
Open Date: 01/29/2016
Close Date: 05/29/2016
Description
Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory seeks highly qualified candidates for two (2) Postdoctoral Research Associate positions working on the Compact Muon Solenoid (CMS) experiment at the CERN Large Hadron Collider (LHC).
Fermilab has a strong and exciting research program on CMS. Fermilab is the home of the LHC Physics Center (LPC) and plays a leading role in physics analysis on CMS in the areas of searches for physics Beyond the Standard Model, studies of the Higgs Boson, and measurements of Standard Model processes. Fermilab has commitments to CMS in several areas of the upgrade and the operation of the experiment, among them: the hadron calorimeter, tracker, level 1 trigger, computing, and data operations.
Successful candidates will be expected to participate in the analysis of data from the 13 TeV proton-proton collisions (Run 2), in the upgrade, and in operation of the CMS experiment. Research Associates may be stationed at CERN, in Geneva, Switzerland or at Fermilab, in Batavia, Illinois.
Positions are for an initial period of up to three (3) years, with the potential for extension considered on a yearly basis thereafter.
Respects, understands and values individual differences that embody the principles of diversity.
Abide by all environment, safety, and health regulations.
Qualifications and Essential Job Functions
· Ph.D. in particle physics or a related discipline by the time of the appointment.
· Strong record of recent accomplishments in experimental physics.
· Excellent oral and written communication skills as demonstrated by presentations at conferences and a record of publication(s) in peer-reviewed journals.
Application Instructions
Interested candidates should submit via Academic Jobs Online:
1) a brief cover letter
2) curriculum vitae,
3) statement of research interests,
4) list of selected publications, and
5) at least three letters of reference.
Please use this URL https://academicjobsonline.org/ajo/jobs/6979.
Applicants should submit their material as soon as possible, as selection of candidates for interviews will begin immediately and will continue until all positions are filled.
For general information about these positions, please contact Dr. Robert Harris at rharris@fnal.gov.
Physical Activity and Work Conditions
HUMAN FACTORS: Mental Concentration, Sitting, and Tight Work Schedule.
In addition, the ability to travel by automobile and/or commercial air carrier both domestically and internationally is required.
There is no legal requirement that Fermilab sponsor an employee for U.S. permanent residence. As a result, Fermilab will make the decision to sponsor an employee on a case-by-case basis. Fermilab will consider the following factors, among others, when determining whether to sponsor an employee for U.S. permanent residence: performance, length of service, long-term need for the position, and cost.
Diverse People, Diverse Jobs
Fermilab is an Equal Opportunity Employer. Minorities/Women/Disabled/Veterans are encouraged to apply.
