Postdoctoral position in accelerator-based neutrino physics at University of Pittsburgh

The HEP group at the University of Pittsburgh invites applications for a postdoctoral research position in neutrino physics. The group's current activities include studies of neutrino interaction physics (MicroBooNE and Minerva) as well as short and long-baseline oscillation physics (MicroBooNE, T2K and DUNE). We are also involved in planning the next phase of Minerva (CAPTAIN-Minerva) and in preparing for the DUNE single-phase prototype beam test at CERN (ProtoDUNE). The applicant will be encouraged to take advantage of existing data samples for analysis (Minerva and MicroBooNE) as well as to take on a significant hardware responsibility related to the upcoming projects.

A PhD in experimental particle or nuclear physics is required. Interested candidates should send a Curriculum Vita and arrange to have three letters of reference sent to Prof. Donna Naples (dnaples@pitt.edu). Review of applications will begin immediately and will continue until the position is filled. University of Pittsburgh is an Equal Opportunity/Affirmative Action employer. Women and minorities are especially encouraged to apply.
