We are inviting applications for a postdoctoral researcher or research associate in experimental neutrino physics with the University of Kansas beginning as early as January 8, 2025. The successful candidate will work with the Experimental Neutrino Physics group on the development of event reconstruction techniques and on physics data analysis at the DUNE experiment and the Fermilab SBN program. Candidates with relevant physics and computing interests and experience are sought.
The newly created University of Kansas Experimental Neutrino Physics group is pursuing an exciting research program focused on the DUNE and SBN experiments. The primary group activity is the development of techniques to reconstruct the distinctive signatures produced by neutrino interactions and BSM processes in LArTPCs, including leveraging new machine learning approaches, within the Pandora reconstruction framework. The group also expects to be significantly involved in physics analysis at both SBN and DUNE, including the flagship oscillation analyses. Among group members there is also expertise and interest in BSM theory, phenomenology and simulation. The successful candidate is expected to take a leadership role in advancing the group’s research program, interacting with and mentoring students, and presenting at international meetings and conferences. The person may be stationed at Fermilab, in Chicago, Illinois or at the University of Kansas in Lawrence.
