| Job Location: | Upton, New York, USA | |
| Job Category: | Industrial Positions | |
| Required Degree: | Doctorate |
Brookhaven has a long tradition of strength in particle and nuclear physics resulting in a world-class intellectual environment. A strong program in cosmology focusing on the exploration of dark energy and other related fundamental physical phenomena is being developed, and will complement the current research. We intend the program to include current cosmology projects, and to lead to a role in the Large Synoptic Survey Telescope (LSST). Brookhaven is a member of the LSST collaboration and is the center for developing the CCD array for the telescope. The Laboratory has extensive large-scale computing and technical resources.
We seek candidates with a record of independent research and accomplishment who have the potential to become leaders in the field. The successful candidate's research program could be in the analysis of astronomical data for cosmologically significant results, in optical and/or near-infrared observational techniques for cosmology, or in cosmological simulations. The candidate may also participate in the sensor R&D for the LSST in a joint effort by the Physics Department and the BNL Instrumentation Division.
Applications should be received by March 1, 2008 to be given fullest consideration. However, applications will be accepted until the positions are filled. The appointments will begin in September 2008, or sooner.
Interested applicants should send a letter (pdf format), curriculum vita, publication list, and a brief description of research interests (proposed research) to the Physicschair@bnl.gov, or by mail, to Dr. Thomas Ludlam, Physics Department, Building 510A, Brookhaven National Laboratory, Upton, NY, 11973. Applicants should also arrange for 3 letters of recommendation to be sent to the same address (email preferred). Candidates must have a Ph.D. or equivalent degree in physics or astronomy.
Brookhaven is an equal opportunity employer committed to workforce diversity.
