[Rachel Harris]

LAWRENCE BERKELEY NATIONAL LABORATORY -- PHYSICS DIVISION

Particle Physicist position -- Job no. 24879

The Physics Division at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (LBNL) has a
position for an experienced physicist. The position involves working
half-time with the Particle Data Group (PDG) and half-time conducting
particle physics or cosmology research in Physics Division programs, see
http://www.lbl.gov/LBL-Programs/physics/

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 or
theoretical research is required. In either case, experience working with
particle physics data is required. 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.

All applications must be submitted online. Questions (but not applications)
may be sent to Juerg Beringer at JBeringer at lbl.gov; please refer to Job
