Postdoctoral Research Assistant to work on the SNO+ experiment

Particle Physics, Denys Wilkinson Building, Keble Road, Oxford
(Grade 7: £29,249 - £35,938 p.a.)

The Sub-department of Particle Physics at the University of Oxford is
seeking a highly qualified postdoctoral research assistant to work on 
the
SNO+ experiment.

The SNO+ liquid scintillation detector will probe a diverse range of
physics, including neutrinoless double beta decay (0nbb), low energy 
solar
neutrinos, geo-neutrinos, reactor-neutrinos and neutrinos from 
supernovae.
The Oxford group is particularly involved in the development of 
software for
event reconstruction and data analysis, a calibration system to study
detector optical properties, and techniques aimed at substantial
improvements to 0nbb sensitivity. The successful candidate will be 
largely
based in Oxford, but will also spend several months per year at the
experiment in Sudbury, Canada to assist in detector commissioning and
on-site development tasks. The candidate would also be expected to help
supervise graduate students and lead some of the simulation/analysis
efforts. They would also take responsibility for maintenance of the 
Oxford
laser calibration system for in situ measurements of optical 
scattering.
Strong programming skills as well as a familiarity with appropriate 
hardware
would therefore be advantageous.

Only applications received promptly by 12:00 noon UK time on 11 January 
2013
can be considered.

Please read the person specification and job description before 
preparing
your application. You will be required to upload a curriculum vita, a
description of research experience and interests and the names and 
addresses
of three referees as part of your online application. In addition you 
should
arrange for the three letters of reference to be sent to Sue Geddes 
(details
below) by the closing date. Applications are acknowledged but not 
reference
letters.
