<p class="MsoNormal"><b class="">Postdoctoral
position at Michigan State
University on T2K and DUNE neutrino
experiments. <span class=""> </span></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The
neutrino group in the Michigan State
University Department of Physics and
Astronomy is seeking qualified applicants
for a postdoctoral research position
on the Tokai-to-Kamioka (T2K) and Deep
Underground Neutrino Experiment (DUNE)
experiments.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><br class="">
</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The
T2K experiment is currently running in
Japan and has an exciting program of
neutrino
oscillation physics and neutrino
interaction measurements. The MSU group,
led
by Prof. Kendall Mahn, focuses on the role
of neutrino interactions in
oscillation measurements. Neutrino
interactions are expected to be
significant
in the goals of future experiments, like
DUNE, which will search for CP violation
in the neutrino sector. The successful
candidate will take a leading role on
neutrino interaction modeling and physics
on T2K and DUNE simulation studies. In
addition, the MSU group is involved in
testing of DUNE cold electronics. <span
class=""> </span>Significant travel to
Japan (of at least 25%)
for T2K is expected. <br class="">
</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><br class="">
</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Applications
will be considered from individuals with a
PhD in physics or a related field,
with preference given to those with strong
backgrounds in particle physics,
astrophysics or cosmic ray physics.
Proficiency in C++ or a similar computer
language is essential; hardware experience
is desirable. Interested individuals
should submit at least 3 letters of
recommendation, a cover letter, CV, and a
statement of research background and
interests through the MSU hiring website:

position 4436.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><br class="">
</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Review
of applications will commence Nov 29th
2016, and will continue until
the position is filled, with a start date
of March 1st, 2017 or as mutually
agreed upon. For further information on
this position, please contact Prof.
