Research
Fellowships & Assistantships
The Sensors, Instrumentation and Radiation Effects group has currently at least two vacancies to support our PPARC funded research in Particle Physics. The group is a member of the BaBar and CMS collaborations, and is involved in GRID computing (DataGRID, GRIDPP) and detector development. We seek to appoint suitably qualified applicants to support our current experimental activities in these areas. Applications are invited for positions on BaBar (with a strong interest in data analysis) and CMS (software and hardware development for the ECAL or Tracker). An interest in contributing to the Group’s GRID activities would be an advantage. The ideal candidate will have a doctorate in physics, computing, electronics, or a closely related discipline and will have experience in developing software. Candidates without PhD's will be considered if they have relevant experience.
Appointments will be made to either a RA1A ( Postdoctoral Fellow) or RA1B (Research Assistant) position, dependent on experience. The salary will be in the range £17,626 to £26491, plus a London Weighting of £1583 pa., and will be dependent on relevant experience. Informal enquiries can be made to Prof. S. J. Watts either by email (Stephen.Watts@brunel.ac.uk), or phone +44 1895 203356.
Application forms may be obtained from Recruitment, Human Resources Department, Brunel University, Uxbridge, UB8 3PH, UK, quoting reference R12231.
The closing date for applications is 23 November 2001 but applications will be considered at all stages up to appointment.
