Postdoctoral Position in Theoretical Physics

The Theory Group in the Physics Division at Argonne National Laboratory is seeking exceptional candidates for a postdoctoral position that will, contingent upon funding, begin in October, 2009. We have a broad-ranging programme in

• hadron physics
• nuclear physics,
• and nuclear astrophysics.

The Group's research places strong emphasis on comparison with data from existing facilities, e.g, ATLAS at Argonne, FermiLab, JLab and RHIC; and on planning for and anticipating the output of future facilities; such as FRIB and EIC. In addition, we also conduct research in atomic physics, neutron physics, and quantum computing.

At Argonne we intend that such a position provide an opportunity for post-doctoral training and experience to a person who has recently graduated; namely, graduated within approximately the last three years.

Information on our group and its research activities can be found at our home page. We urge those interested in this position to examine and consider seriously the information provided on these pages. The successful applicant will have research interests that complement ours.

Applicants should EMail a curriculum vitae and a clear, concise, one-page statement of research interests to:

• C.D. Roberts
  email: cdroberts@anl.gov
  

and also arrange for three letters of reference to be EMailed to this address. All application materials should be sent in either plain text or PDF.

Applications received on or before Fri., 28/Nov./08, will receive our fullest consideration. We hope to begin interviewing candidates in January, 2009.

Argonne is an equal opportunity employer.
