Main purpose of the job:
The Particle Physics Group at the University of Manchester invites applications for a Research Associate to work on the D0 experiment at the Fermilab Tevatron. The three-year position has been awarded as part of STFC's Responsive RA scheme. The Tevatron is currently the only running accelerator at the high energy frontier and D0 will continue to take data until 2009 or possibly until 2010. Among other projects, the Manchester D0 group is playing important roles in searches for both Standard Model and SUSY Higgs, as well as top quark measurements. We also currently provide the coordinators for the D0 calorimeter algorithms and track trigger groups.
The successful candidate will be expected to play a leading role in Higgs searches and will help in the supervision of postgraduate students. Ideally the successful candidate would be based permanently at Fermilab, in which case an additional overseas cost of living allowance would be paid.
Alternatively, regular travel to the experiment would be required.
Allowances: A successful candidate based permanently at Fermilab would receive additional Long Term Attachment (LTA) and/or Nightly Subsistance Allowance (NSA) towards the cost of overseas living. LTA and NSA to be advised on appointment.
