STAR Postdoctoral Research Associate at Rice University, Houston TX

The experimental high-energy nuclear physics group at Rice University invites applications for a Postdoctoral Research Associate to work on the STAR experiment at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider.

The successful candidate is expected to take a leadership role in physics analyses in the area of heavy-flavor and dilepton physics as well as be actively involved in the group’s responsibilities for STAR’s time-of-flight and muon-telescope detectors. It is anticipated that the position be initially based in Houston, TX with a possibility of relocation to BNL at a later time.

Interested candidates should hold a Ph.D. in high-energy nuclear or particle physics and submit by email a curriculum vitae, including a list of publications, and a brief description of research experience and interests. In addition, the candidate is expected to arrange for three references who are expected to send their letter of recommendation by email to Prof. Frank Geurts (geurts@rice.edu).

Applications received by April 24 will receive fullest attention.
