Postdoc positions in Theoretical Astrophysics at Fermilab

The Fermilab Theoretical Astrophysics Group expects to have several postdoctoral positions available beginning September 1, 2009. There are openings for Theoretical Astrophysics Fellowships and for one David Schramm Fellow. Applicants to either of these programs will be considered for both unless the applicant indicates otherwise - so one only need apply once.

THEORETICAL ASTROPHYSICS FELLOWSHIPS

The Fermilab Theoretical Astrophysics Group expects to have several postdoctoral positions available beginning September 1, 2009. The group has a wide range of interests, including theory of the early Universe and their connections to particle physics, large-scale structure and evolution, dark matter and dark energy, ultra-high energy cosmic rays, neutrino astrophysics, and a growing program in numerical cosmology. Our group is part of Fermilab's Center for Particle Astrophysics which, in addition to theory, encompasses Fermilab's involvement in the Dark Energy Survey, the Pierre Auger Project, the Cryogenic Dark Matter Search, the Joint Dark Energy Mission, and other projects. Group members can be involved in any of these efforts as well as the development of future projects. Our group also has strong connections to the Particle Theory Group and with the Department of Astronomy and Astrophysics at the University of Chicago. Currently the group’s staff members consist of Scott Dodelson, Joshua Frieman, Nick Gnedin, Craig Hogan, Dan Hooper, and Albert Stebbins, as well as three postdocs.

Appointments are normally for two years. Applications should include a curriculum vitae, publication list, research statement, and at least three letters of reference and be received by November 15, 2008. Applications and requests for information should be mailed to

DAVID N. SCHRAMM FELLOWSHIP
http://www-astro-theory.fnal.gov/positions/fellow.html

The Fermilab Theoretical Astrophysics Group has an opening for the David Schramm Fellowship beginning September 1, 2009. Applicants should have an excellent research record in cosmology/theoretical astrophysics. This research fellowship will be awarded for a period of up to five years. In addition to a competitive salary, the position includes ample funds for travel and other research expenses.

Appointments are normally for two years. Applications should include a curriculum vitae, publication list, research statement, and at least three letters of reference and be received by November 15, 2008. Applications and requests for information should be mailed to
