Experimental Astro postdocs at Fermilab

Post by Scott Dodelson » December 22 2006

The Center for Particle Astrophysics at Fermilab invites applicants for postdoctoral research associate positions, to conduct experimental research in particle astrophysics in collaboration with one of the experimental groups associated with the Center. The groups currently consist of the Pierre Auger Observatory, the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS), the Cryogenic Dark Matter Search (CDMS), the COUPP experiment, the Dark Energy Survey (DES), and the Supernova Acceleration Probe (SNAP). These experiments cover a wide range of topics in the forefront of experimental astrophysics, and deploy instruments from South America to northern Minnesota to Earth orbit. They promise exciting opportunities in instrumentation and analysis for a young researcher, with graduate work completed in either particle astrophysics or particle physics.

The laboratory maintains a vibrant research environment for its scientific staff, including colloquia, seminars, and travel support. The Center for Particle Astrophysics at Fermilab provides a venue for experimental and theoretical particle astrophysicists to work on forefront research problems in a setting encouraging interaction and collaboration. Appointments are normally for three years with one-year renewals possible thereafter. Every effort will be made to maintain support for a Fermilab RA until he/she has the opportunity to produce physics results. Applications and requests for information should be directed to Dr.Wyatt Merritt, Chair, PACF Postdoc Committee via [Log in to view email]. Applications should include a curriculum vitae, publication list and three letters of reference. Fermilab is an Equal Opportunity Employer-M/F/D/V
