[Hps] SLAC postdoc positions on HPS/Dark Sectors

[Nelson, Timothy Knight]

Dear HPS,

SLAC is seeking candidates to fill two postdoc positions for HPS/Dark Sectors.

https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__academicjobsonline.org_ajo_jobs_11244&d=DwIGaQ&c=lz9TcOasaINaaC3U7FbMev2lsutwpI4--09aP8Lu18s&r=hGEVsUzUB5ml8iDt6EuOdg&m=Y9koNcHNJMc3PXuTTKfdPj4U3IbM6ehCT5TOYxVi3bA&s=uQpTGO-fwQfcKjXzg7rcUNLMvI6Pq5gzrcgFVWJjHhM&e= 

As you know, SLAC is building a small but aggressive upgrade to the HPS SVT and there will be a lot of work to make sure everything is running smoothly before we start taking data, so we are especially interested in candidates who are really talented with both hardware and analysis. 

Depending somewhat on the skills of the new hires, it is likely that one or both will also become involved in developing the Light Dark Matter eXperiment (LDMX), a proposal to definitely search for MeV-GeV Dark Matter. Assuming LDMX gains critical support in the coming months these positions will be part of a growing Dark Sectors group at SLAC.

If you know anyone you think might be a good fit for these positions, I hope you’ll pass this message along and encourage them to apply.  

Best,
Tim
