The High Energy Physics Group at Imperial College London invites
applications for a Research Assistant/Associate to work on T2K neutrino
data analysis, T2K detector operations and maintenance work, and R&D for
T2K detector upgrades comprising hardware, software and analysis work.
This will involve working with a team applying multidisciplinary skills
in the general areas software, hardware, computing and analysis.
The Imperial College T2K group is playing important roles in data
analysis, particularly focussing on neutrino oscillation and neutrino
interactions. The Imperial T2K group has major leadership roles
(including the current International co-Spokesperson, ND280 software
convener, ND280 calibration convener, and ND280 ECal analysis convener),
as well as interests in upgrades to the experiment, especially the near
detectors.
The Research Associate will have, and Research Assistant will be about
to submit, a PhD in Experimental Particle Physics or have equivalent
professional qualifications and experience. Experience in HEP and/or
neutrino data analysis, and evidence of good problem-solving skills are
essential. Experience in taking initiative and/or developing own ideas
independently, and experience in leadership or evidence of future
leadership potential, are also essential.
Experience of programming in C++, working with hardware development
and/or maintenance, detector/accelerator operations and performance
studies, and experience of Monte Carlo simulation development and use
are desirable. Experience of working with Postgraduate or advanced
Undergraduate students, and of working in an international collaborative
environment are also desirable.
Work will be carried out both in London and in Japan. Other UK and
foreign travel is also likely. If resident at Imperial, you will be
expected to contribute to the Department's teaching activities up to
approximately half a day per week during the academic year, as
appropriate.
Further details about the post are available from Dr Yoshi Uchida,
Reader in High Energy Physics ([log in to unmask]).
The Imperial College London High Energy Physics group has a strong
experimental programme encompassing the CMS and LHCb experiments at the
LHC and the T2K experiment in Japan. The group is also active in
searches for Dark Matter, SuperNEMO, LISA, the development of future
experiments and has an active accelerator programme. Further details
may be found at: http://www.imperial.ac.uk/highenergyphysics
