LHCb for Bc analysis
One postdoctoral research position is available at The Laboratoire de l'Accelerateur Lineaire d'Orsay (LAL) to work on physics analysis of the data of LHCb experiment at CERN.
The LAL LHCb group is responsible for part of the construction of the LHCb Calorimeters electronics and of the level0
electronics. The group consists of 9 researchers and 3 PhD students.
Members of the group are now preparing the analysis of the first LHCb data, in particular the complete analysis of Bc hadrons properties. This programme is supported by the French ANR (Agence Nationale de la Recherche). The objectives of this programme are to determine with precision the properties of the Bc particle (lifetime, mass, main branching fractions). This will include the determination of luminosity and bb crosssections using the very first data recorder by the experiment.
The position is funded for two years; the position will be based in Orsay, close to Paris, with frequent travels to CERN, and will start before end of July 2008. Applicants must have a PhD degree in high energy physics with relevant experience, in particular a strong knowledge in C++.
Enquiries and applications (including CV and names of three references) can be sent via email to Patrick Robbe (robbe@lal.in2p3.fr) and Marie-Helene Schune (schunem@lal.in2p3.fr) .
