The University of Virginia, Department of Physics, invites applications for a Research Scientist to work on the PEN experiment at PSI, Switzerland, and the Nab/abBA program at SNS, Oak Ridge, TN. A Ph.D. in Physics and knowledge of fast trigger instrumentation, advanced Monte Carlo techniques, GEANT, ROOT, Linux, C, and C++ are required. Experience in precision measurements of rare electroweak processes is preferred. The successful applicant is expected to take on a leading role in detector simulation, design, data acquisition, and data analysis. Review of applications will begin on March 1, 2009; however, the position remains open to applications until filled.
To apply, candidates must complete a Candidate Profile online and attach a cover letter, curriculum vitae, and contact information for three references through Jobs@UVA (https://jobs.virginia.edu); search on Posting Number 0603111.
Also, under separate cover by mail or email, please arrange for three (3) letters of recommendation to be sent to:
Questions regarding the application process or Jobs@UVA should be directed to:
The University of Virginia is an Equal Opportunity/Affirmative Action Employer. Women and members of underrepresented groups are strongly encouraged to apply.
The Experimental Particle Physics group at the University of Virginia has an immediate opening for a research associate to participate on the NOVA and Mu2e experiments at Fermilab. The Virginia group has major responsibilities for the construction of the near and far NOVA neutrino detectors, where we are leading the fabrication effort of the Power Distribution System and the Detector Controls and Monitoring System. We are also playing a leading role on Mu2e, a flagship experiment for the future Fermilab high-intensity physics program that will search for new physics with unprecedented sensitivity through charged lepton flavor violation. The successful applicant will be resident in Charlottesville and is expected to take a leadership role in the fabrication of the NOVA detector, and to participate in the Mu2e R&D program. Applicants must have a PhD in experimental particle or nuclear physics. The position is immediately available and will be filled as soon as a suitable candidate is found. Interested candidates should send their curriculum vitae, a description of their research interests, and arrange for three letters of recommendation to be sent to:
or via e-mail to craigdukes@Virginia.EDU

The Experimental High Energy Physics group at the University of Virginia invites applications for a postdoctoral Research Associate on the D0 Experiment. Our D-Zero activities include significant contributions to the Level 2 trigger and the Level 1 Track Trigger, detector operations, and analysis efforts in the Electro-Weak, QCD, and B-Physics sectors. The successful candidate will be resident at Fermilab and have responsibility for operation of the D-Zero Level-2 trigger. Duties will include organizing efforts with other subgroups to optimize trigger performance, representing Level-2 in the D-Zero Operations group, and management and training of on-call experts. Trigger duties will be approximately a half time commitment. The successful candidate will also be expected to take a leading role in analysis of the D-Zero data and to contribute to efforts to maximize physics sensitivity in the high luminosity data sets.
Applicants must have a PhD in experimental high energy physics and preferentially have experience in hadron collider physics. Interested candidates should send their curriculum vitae, a description of their research interests, and arrange for three letters of recommendation to be sent to:
Review of applications will begin immediately and will continue until the position is filled.
The University of Virginia is an Equal Opportunity, Affirmative Action Employer. Women and minorities are strongly encouraged to apply.
The department of Physics at the University of Virginia is advertising for a postdoctoral position in scattering studies and simulations of amorphous alloys. The position is available now and should be filled by the end of the year 2008.
Applicants must have a PhD in either Physics or Materials Science and be experienced with neutron and/or X-ray scattering techniques performed at national facilities. The successful candidate will be involved in the study of metallic glasses using both computation and experimental techniques to probe structure and dynamics.
Applications for both positions should include a statement of intent, a resume, and two reference names and be sent to Despina Louca via email at louca@Virginia.EDU.
Women and underrepresented groups are encouraged to apply. The University of Virginia is an Equal Opportunity, Affirmative Action Employer and is strongly committed to building diversity within its community.
