Postdoctoral Research Associate in Theoretical

2 weeks ago


Liverpool, United Kingdom University of Liverpool Full time

The University of Liverpool is seeking to appoint a highly motivated individual, to work on theoretical aspects in its growing programme on precision muon physics, supported through funding from a Leverhulme Trust International Professorship. The position will be in the research cluster Fundamental Particle Physics in the Department of Mathematical Sciences which is part of the School of Physical Sciences.

The comparison of the Standard Model (SM) prediction of the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon, g-2, with its experimental measurement, shows a tantalizing discrepancy. Liverpool is strongly involved in the g-2 experiment at FNAL and has, for many years, been a leader in the data-driven calculation of the hadronic contributions to g-2 which limit the accuracy of the SM prediction. Future improvements of the e+e
- to hadron cross section measurements which are underlying the SM prediction require Monte Carlo generators with accurate radiative corrections, beyond what is currently available. Liverpool is also involved in the development of the MUonE experiment at CERN, whose success will require new state-of the-art radiative corrections and simulations.

Any applicants who are still awaiting their PhD to be awarded should be aware that if successful, they will be appointed at grade 6, spine point 30. Upon written confirmation that they have been successful in being awarded their PhD, they will be moved onto grade 7, spine point 31 from the date of their award.
