LAWRENCE BERKELEY NATIONAL LABORATORY -- PHYSICS DIVISION

Particle Physicist position

The Physics Division at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory
(LBNL) has a position for an experienced Particle
Physicist. The position involves working half-time with the
Particle Data Group (PDG) and half-time conducting research in
a Physics Division experiment.

The position may be either a term or career position, depending
on seniority. A term appointment would have the expectation of
conversion to a career position (contingent upon demonstrated
effectiveness in PDG and research).

The applicant will be expected to play an important role in the
Physics Division's research program. An outstanding capability
in experimental research is required. Strength in the area of
detector hardware is an important asset. The candidate should
be qualified to take a leadership role in the PDG at a future
time.

The applicant must have sufficient experience (equivalent to at
least four years of postdoctoral work) in particle physics to
have a very broad overview of the field, a critical eye for
both scientific and editorial work, and an ability to organize
and summarize information. Excellent writing and editing skills
are needed. The individual must be able to work effectively in
a team environment.

A description of research areas in the LBNL Physics Division is
at: http://www.lbl.gov/LBL-Programs/physics/

All applications must be submitted online. Questions (but not
applications) may be sent to Cheng-Ju Lin at CJSLin at lbl.gov;
please refer to Job #23630 in the email.

A letter of application, a curriculum vitae, and the names and
email addresses of potential references should be submitted
through the following website:

  http://pdg.lbl.gov/job2009/

To ensure full consideration, applications should be received
by December 10, 2009. Two international (not US) references
will be eventually required, but need not be provided at the
time of application.
