University of Massachusetts Amherst invites applications for
a tenure-track faculty position in experimental
particle/nuclear physics to start September 1, 2017. The
focus area for this position is non-accelerator physics,
including dark matter searches, neutrino physics, and
physics probing fundamental symmetries at low energy. The
new faculty member will be part of the Amherst Center for
Fundamental Interactions (</font><a moz-do-not-send="true"

recently established to enhance the interplay between
theoretical and experimental research at the interface
between the cosmic, intensity, and high-energy frontiers.
The Department is currently involved in searches for WIMP
dark matter (DarkSide), neutrino-less double beta decay
(EXO-200/nEXO), and solar neutrinos (Borexino/SOX), and the
precision determination of muon g-2. Other particle physics
efforts include QCD probes at JLab, and ATLAS at CERN.

with outstanding research and a strong commitment to teaching.
The candidate is expected to set up a vigorous, independent
research program. A PhD or equivalent education in areas
closely related to dark matter, neutrino, neutron, and low
energy particle physics, and postdoctoral experience are
required. We are seeking talented applicants qualified for an
assistant professor position. Under exceptional circumstances,
highly qualified candidates at higher ranks may receive
consideration.</p>
