Postdoctoral Research Assistant in Dark Matter Searches
Applications for this vacancy closed on 15 July 2024 at 12:00PM
The Department of Physics are looking to recruit a Postdoctoral Research
Assistant in Dark Matter Searches.
The post is fixed term for 2 years and full time.
This post will involve working with a team applying multidisciplinary skills
in the general areas of detector development, software development, detector
characterisation and physics analysis. The post-holder will work with the
other members of the Oxford group, other UK university groups, International
collaborators and with the host laboratory to support and develop the group’s
research. Specifically, the post-holder will be expected to contribute to the
development of dark matter search analysis tools, to support students in the
group working on related analyses, and to play a role in integration and
commissioning of the DarkSide-20k detector at LNGS.
The Monroe Research group is a vibrant team consisting of one senior academic,
1 research fellow, 3 postdoctoral researchers, 8 PhD students, 2 graduate
research assistants, and 1 technician. Within the Particle Physics sub-
Department, the broader group includes dark matter research on the LZ, ATLAS,
LSST and future XLZD and AION experiments, and cognate research employing
liquid argon detectors in the accelerator neutrino group includes the Micro
Boone, SBND and DUNE experiments.
A University degree (or close to completing) at PhD level in particle physics
or a closely related discipline is essential.
The post holder will have the opportunity to teach.
We appreciate the post holder beginning duties as soon as possible, but are
open to discussion. The post may involve regular travel to LNGS and/or Boulby,
and there are opportunities for long-term attachment.
Interested applicants are welcome to contact Jocelyn Monroe
(jocelyn.monroe@physics.ox.ac.uk) or Elizabeth Leason
(Elizabeth.leason@physics.ox.ac.uk) for more information.
Only applications received promptly by 12:00 noon UK time on **15 July 2024**
can be considered. Please read the “Person Specification and Job Description”
before preparing your application. You will be required to upload a Curriculum
Vitae, a description of research experience and interests and the names and
addresses of two referees as part of your online application
