Title: Postdoc Position in High Energy Physics -- CMS Experiment

 

The São Paulo Research and Analysis Center (SPRACE) is opening

 post-doctoral positions for outstanding research fellows to work in

 association with the group on the Compact Muon Solenoid (CMS)

 experiment of the CERN Large Hadron Collider (LHC) based in the São

Paulo State University (Unesp) in São Paulo, Brazil. Grant funds are

 provided by FAPESP, the São Paulo Research Foundation.

 

 The SPRACE research team is engaged in two CMS physics analysis groups:

 Exotic physics (Beyond the Standard Model) and Heavy Ion physics.

 SPRACE also operates a WLCG Tier-2 cluster and is responsible for the

implementation of a state-wide grid infrastructure, GridUNESP, which

serves more than 100 research groups from different scientific

 communities. SPRACE is also involved in R&D activities on the

 conceptual design, simulation and proof-of-concept of the data

acquisition (DAQ) electronics of the outer tracker detector of the CMS experiment.

 

 SPRACE is committed to the principles of equal opportunity and

affirmative action. Applications from any sexual orientation and

members of minority groups are encouraged.

 

Please provide an application letter, résumé of work experience, and  at least two letters of recommendation to: cms@sprace.org.br.

 

This opportunity is open to candidates of any nationality. The  selected candidate will receive a FAPESP’s Post-Doctoral fellowship in  the amount of R$ 9,047.40 monthly and a research contingency fund, equivalent to 10% of the annual value of the fellowship which should be spent in items directly related to the research activity.
