Faculty Position in Experimental Cosmic Ray Physics
Columbia University
The Department of Physics of Columbia University is seeking qualified
applicants for a position at the level of Assistant Professor in the
area of experimental particle astrophysics to help lead Columbia's
efforts on HiRes, the High Resolution Fly's Eye project in Utah. HiRes
will measure the energy spectrum of cosmic rays at energies beyond
10**20 eV, search for sources of such high energy cosmic rays and
measure the cosmic ray composition as a function of energy. A search
for penetrating showers may provide information about the ultrahigh
energy neutrino flux. The Columbia University group has designed and
constructed the readout electronics for the 42 telescopes of the HiRes
II site now being commissioned. The full detector should be available
by the end of the summer. The new Assistant Professor is expected to

The HEP Group at University College London has an opening for a
Postdoctoral Research Associate to work in the area of Hadron Collider
Physics. The group is collaborating on both the ATLAS experiment at CERN,
and CDF at Fermilab. With the Tevatron due to start taking data again next
year, the group now wishes to increase the resources directed toward
physics studies at these colliders. At present we are involved in CP
violation studies in the B sector at ATLAS, and ElectroWeak physics at
CDF, however we are also interested in diversification into other possible
areas such as supersymmetry. Therefore one of the prime roles of the
sucessful applicant will be to develop and lead an interest in a suitable
physics sector.=20
We are also involved in several offline computing areas within both CDF
and ATLAS. On ATLAS we are part of the second level trigger collaboration
and on CDF we are involved in track reconstruction and database software.
In both collaborations this work is within an Object Oriented programming
environment. Therefore a second role of the successful applicant could be
in this area. Applicants need not have prior OO experience as this
position would provide an excellent opportunity to gain such training.
The post will be to work with Peter Clarke [clarke@hep.ucl.ac.uk or
peter.clarke@cern.ch] (ATLAS) and Mark Lancaster [markl@hep.ucl.ac.uk]
(CDF) to whom you should direct any informal enquiries. For general
information about the group or application please contact Peter Clarke.=20
The post will be on the 1A scale, with salary between 15,735 and 23,651
per annum, according to experience, plus 2134 London allowance. Please
send a letter of application with a full cv, publications list and the
names, emails, and addresses of two referees to Peter Clarke . Please
submit as much of the application as possible electronically (most formats
are acceptable including WORD, Latex, PostScript, PDF). Otherwise send to:
Dr P.Clarke, Department of Physics and Astronomy, University College
London, Gower Street, London WC1E 6BT, UK.=20
