The Strategic Helmholtz Alliance "Physics at the
Terascale" (http://www.terascale.de) is a research network supported by
the Helmholtz Associaction and comprises the research centres DESY and
FZ Karlsruhe, 17 German universities, and the Max-Planck Insitute for
Physics. In the framework of the worldwide endeavour of studying the
foundations of matter using accerelators with highest energies, the
Alliance will sustainably bundle and advance the expertise and strengths
of the participating institutes.
In the Institute for Nuclear and Particle Physics at
the Faculty of Science we have an immediate opening for a tenure track
Helmholtz Junior-Professorship (W1) in Experimental
Particle Physics
The successful applicant will lead a "Young
Investigator Group" of the Helmholtz Alliance. He/she will be engaged in
data analysis of the ATLAS experiment at the LHC as well as in detector
R&D for the "International Linear Collider", ILC. Close collaboration is
expected with the research groups on experimental and theoretical
particle physics and with the electronics lab of the institute. The
candidate is expected to participate in general teaching activities of
the Department of Physics and especially in teaching of the advanced
level courses in "Nuclear and Particle Physics".
We are looking for applicants with a Ph.D. in
experimental particle physics, whose excellent achievements as a
Post-Doc in an international particle physics collaboration qualify them
as a leader of a "Young Investigator Group". The group will be funded
from the Helmholtz Alliance.
Employment prerequisites are in accordance with the
Saxony University rules and regulations (§ 46 Saxony University Statues
– new version). Accordingly, the candidate will have completed a
university degree, have the educational qualifications, as well as
specialized knowledge in research work (normally an excellent doctorate
/PhD). Junior Professors will be offered up to a four year contract.
This contract, after a positive intermediate evaluation, can be extended
for a total of up to 6 years (§ 45 of the Saxony University Statutes -
new version). Subject to a successful final evaluation a tenured
position of a senior staff scientist will be granted at the institute
after the end of the Junior-Professorship. Applications for
professorships within Technische Universität Dresden are possible after
the successful intermediate evaluation in line with the rules of the
Saxony University Statues.
Applications from women are particularly welcome. The
same applies to the disabled.
Please submit your application together with your CV,
your scientific employment record, list of publications, copies of the
certificate of your highest academic degree and copies of 5 publications
before
October 15, 2007
in electronic form to prodekan@physik.tu-dresden.de
(note, that currently no receipt of digitally signed or encrypted
documents is possible) and in written form to:
TU Dresden, Dekan der Fakultät Mathematik und
Naturwissenschaften, Herrn Prof. Dr. M. Ruck, 01062 Dresden, Germany.

hadronization Monte Carlo programs who will head a new Young
Investigator Group which is being established at the Institute for
Theoretical Physics within the Helmholtz Alliance
Physics at the Terascale.
The applicant should have a strong research background with several
years of postdoctoral experience in particle physics phenomenology and
Monte Carlo development for physics at the Large Hadron Collider.
The position is funded by the Helmholtz Alliance
until June 2012 and remunerated according to the TVöD regulations for
scientific employees. After this date, the position may become that of a
permanent scientific employee at the Institute for Theoretical Physics.
The position can be filled January 1, 2008.
The University aims to increase the number of female
scientists and especially welcomes applications from women. Handicapped
persons with equal qualifications will be preferred.
Interested candidates are requested to submit their
CV, description of professional experience and a statement about past
and planned research activities before

The Department
of Physics of Georg-August-Universität Göttingen
Invites
application for a
Helmholtz-Juniorprofessorship
(Salary scale W1 BBesO)
of Theoretical
Physics, in particular High Energy Particle Physics and Phenomenology
to be filled by January 1, 2008 (temporary
appointment into civil service for an initial period of 3 years with a
possible extension of another 3 years).
The successful applicant is expected to do research
in the fields of Phenomenology of elementary particles and Physics at
the Terascale
The objects of research are to supplement the current
and future range of research topics of the group Experimental Particle
Physics in the Department of Physics in the field of elementary particle
physics at the Terascale (at LHC and ILC) and be closely integrated into
the Helmholtz Alliance on "Physics at the Terascale". The successful
candidate is expected to take part in teaching the subject of
theoretical physics (Bachelor’s and Master’s courses) as well as the
specialization subject of particle physics.
Preconditions for appointments are laid down in § 30
of the Law on Higher Education of Lower Saxony of February 26, 2007
