Job description:
The particle astrophysics group at Queen’s University is seeking applicants for a postdoctoral researcher position on the SNO+ experiment. SNO+ is a 780-tonne liquid scintillator experiment that will be used to study solar, geo, reactor, and supernova neutrinos and to search for neutrinoless double beta decay of 130Te (see
http://snoplus.phy.queensu.ca). The successful candidate will take a leading role in the final construction, commissioning, and calibration of the SNO+ detector and in the analysis of first data (expected in 2015). The position will be based at Queen’s University in Kingston, Ontario, but will involve travel to and possibly extended stays at the
SNOLAB facility in Sudbury, Ontario.
The successful candidate will have a PhD in experimental particle physics, nuclear physics, or astroparticle physics. The original appointment will be for two years, with the possibility of renewal. Salary will be commensurate with qualifications and experience. Applicants should submit a statement of research interests and a detailed CV, and arrange to have at least three letters of reference mailed to:
Alex Wright
IPP Research Scientist & Assistant Professor
Department of Physics, Engineering Physics & Astronomy
Queen's University
Kingston, ON K7L 3N6
Canada
or sent by e-mail to: awright@physics.queensu.ca.
Queen’s University thanks all who express an interest and advises that only those selected for an interview will be contacted. Review of applications will begin October 1st, 2014 and will continue until the position is filled.
The University invites applications from all qualified individuals. Queen’s is committed to employment equity and diversity in the workplace and welcomes applications from all qualified candidates including women, visible minorities, aboriginal people, persons with disabilities and persons of any sexual orientation or gender identity.
