| The high energy theory group at Wayne State University (http://www.physics.wayne.edu/heptheory) anticipates making TWO postdoctoral research appointments to start September 1, 2012, subject to budgetary approval. The initial appointments will be for one year, and may be extended for one or more years depending on the performance and availability of funding.
The group consists of faculty Gil Paz and Alexey A. Petrov, as well as a postdoc and several students. Research interests of the group include particle phenomenology, physics beyond the Standard Model, effective field theories, heavy quark physics, CP violation, Dark Matter phenomenology and particle astrophysics. The group has close ties to the nuclear theory group of Sean Gavin and Abhijit Majumder. The WSU Department of Physics and Astronomy offers a unique opportunity of close interaction with experimental high energy particle and nuclear physics groups.
Applications including CV, a list of publications, a brief statement of research interests and three letters of recommendation should be submitted to Academic Jobs Online at http://academicjobsonline.org
The deadline for application is January 15, 2012. Later applications will be considered until the positions are filled. Informal inquiries are welcomed at gilpaz@wayne.edu or apetrov@wayne.edu.
Wayne State University is an affirmative action/equal opportunity employer. Women and members of minority groups are encouraged to apply. |
