Staff Positions in Nuclear Astrophysics
 Physics Division, Argonne National Laboratory

The Physics Division at Argonne National Laboratory invites applications and nominations for two staff positions in Nuclear Astrophysics. The positions are open for immediate occupation. We aim to recruit both an outstanding experimentalist and an outstanding theorist. The successful candidates will be able to conduct a novel and vigorous research program in nuclear astrophysics with relevance to a future radioactive ion beam facility.

We are seeking candidates with an outstanding record of past accomplishments and great promise for future growth in research. We plan to appoint at the rank of Asst. Physicist (Ph.D. plus at least two years Postdoc experience). However, an appointment at the level of Physicist (Ph.D. plus at least 3-5 years experience) might be considered should circumstances warrant.

Argonne is one of the pre-eminent multidisciplinary research facilities in the Nation, located about 25 miles southwest of Chicago. It is a U.S. Department of Energy laboratory managed by UChicago Argonne, LLC. The Physics Division has a staff of about 100, including 33 Ph.Ds and 17 postdoctoral scholars, and has major research programs in low-energy nuclear physics, nuclear and hadron theory, medium energy nuclear physics, and accelerator technology. The division operates the Argonne Tandem-Linac Accelerator Facility (ATLAS) as a national user facility for low-energy nuclear physics. ATLAS is currently being upgraded to increase its capabilities for rare isotope beams via the Californium Rare Isotope Beam Upgrade (CARIBU). The future construction of a major new facility for rare isotope physics is an important strategic goal for the division and the laboratory.

Argonne is an equal opportunity employer.
