Postdoctoral Research Assistant in Flavour Physics

4 weeks ago


Oxford, United Kingdom University of Oxford Full time

Applications are invited for a Postdoctoral Research Assistant in Particle Physics.

The place of work will be at the Denys Wilkinson Building, Keble Rd, Oxford, OX1 3RH or at CERN, Geneva Switzerland.

A large new dataset from BESIII coupled with the upcoming LHCb Run3 data give rise to an unparalleled opportunity to make precision measurements of the CKM angle gamma.

This will involve adapting existing and developing new scientific techniques; contributing ideas for new research projects; collaborating in the preparation of scientific reports and journal articles and occasionally presenting papers and posters; representing the research group at external meetings & seminars and carrying out collaborative projects with colleagues in partner institutions, and research groups.

Applicants should hold, or be close to completion of, a PhD/DPhil in experimental physics or a related field and ideally possess a strong background in flavour physics.

Previous experience of the LHCb and/or BESIII experiments will be an advantage.

The post-holder will have the opportunity to teach.
