Postdoctoral position in HEP phenomenology

Deadline on Dec 6, 2019

Job description:

The HEP group at LAPTh Annecy invites applications for a postdoctoral position funded by the French National Research Agency (ANR). The position is for 2 + 1 years, starting from fall 2020.

We are seeking a candidate with expertise on effective field theories applied to flavour physics. Experience with advanced EFT approaches such as soft-collinear effective theory is a plus, although it is not necessary to apply. Close interaction with the LHCb group at the adjacent LAPP building is foreseen.

However, applicants from all areas of high-energy phenomenology are encouraged to apply.

The HEP-group activities at LAPTh span all fields of phenomenology, from QCD, to model-building aspects, to the particle-Dark Matter interface, to flavour. The lab enjoys a close contact with LAPP Annecy (exp) and LPSC Grenoble (exp/theory), as well as with other CNRS labs, and with the nearby CERN. Annecy is a beautiful small-size town, located in a uniquely attractive area for e.g. all sorts of outdoor activities.
