The Nuclear and Particle Physics group at New Mexico State University
invites applications for a Postdoctoral Research Associate position
(Req. No. 1700212S) in Experimental High-Energy Nuclear Physics.
 
The position will be based at Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory as
part of the MicroBooNE Collaboration using the Booster Neutrino Beam.
 
Our physics focus is on measurements of neutrino-nucleus and -nucleon
cross sections with emphasis on fundamental issues of nucleon structure
and the the strong interaction. Analysis projects in these areas are
immediately available, as well as simulation projects that look forward
to future experiments.
 
The successful candidate will work with our experimental nuclear and
particle physics group, currently consisting of two faculty members
(Stephen Pate and Vassili Papavassiliou) with the possible addition of
a third in the near future; one other research associate; and several
graduate students.
 
A doctoral degree or equivalent in physics is required; experience in
experimental medium-energy or high-energy nuclear physics or particle
physics is preferred. Salaries are competitive and a comprehensive
package of benefits is offered. An electronic job application must be
filled out and documents attached as stated on the posting announcement:
go tohttps://jobs.nmsu.edu/postings/28046  for complete application
instructions. Applications may be submitted until midnight on August 1, 2017.
NMSU is an equal-opportunity/affirmative-action university. Applications
from minorities and women are particularly encouraged.
