<div>TWO UPCOMING TENURE-TRACK FACULTY POSITIONS AT PHYSICS<br>
INSTITUTE, UNIVERSITY OF SÃO PAULO<br>
<br>
<div style="text-align: left;">The Experimental Physics
Department, within the Physics Institute</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">at the University of São Paulo
expects to open two new tenure-track</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">Faculty positions in the near
future. We are seeking talented</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">and greatly motivated young
scientists who would be interested</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">in applying. The Department has a
very diverse research program,</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">which includes both Experimental
and Theoretical Physics. The</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">University of São Paulo is the most
prestigious academic institution</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">in Brazil, with its main campus
located in the largest and culturally</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">most vibrant city in the Country.</div>
<br>
As a first step in the process, different groups are prospecting<br>
for potential applicants. We are looking for researchers, who
hold a Doctoral<br>
degree, with strong backgrounds in Intermediate and High Nuclear
Physics.<br>
<br>
We participate in the ALICE collaboration at LHC/CERN studying<br>
properties of hadronic systems through the analysis of </div>
<div>transverse-momentum distributions. Also, we develop a software</div>
<div>to simulate nuclear reactions induced by protons, photons, </div>
<div>neutrons or electrons at intermediate and high energies through
the </div>
<div>Monte Carlo Method. One of the applications of<br>
this code is on the study of utrarelativistic ultra-periphetal<br>
collisions in the ALICE experiment, where the production of<br>
vector-mesons is our main focus.<br>
Possible applications on the Physics of JLab could be developed.<br>
<br>
Interested candidates should send a short CV and a declaration of<br>
intention in applying for the position when it will be available
to<br>
