Associate Scientist - Batavia, United States - Fermilab
Description
Fermilab is America's premier laboratory for particle physics and accelerator research, funded by the U.S. Department of Energy. We support discovery science experiments in Illinois and at locations around the world, including deep underground mines in South Dakota and Canada, mountaintops in Arizona and Chile, and the South Pole.We are strategic risk takers, innovators, and collaborators. We are engineers, scientists, technicians, administrative professionals. We are over 2,000 employees advancing knowledge for the benefit of humankind. Fermilab has been at the forefront of particle physics for more than 40 years. We build world-leading accelerators and detectors to conduct some of the most advanced particle physics experiments possible. We collect and analyze the data from those experiments with some of the most powerful computers in the world. We conduct this research on a 6,800-acre prairie, 35 miles outside Chicago, a treasure that has been designated a National Environmental Research Park.
The Fermilab Accelerator Directorate (AD) is seeking applications for an Associate Scientist position on the staff of the AD External Beam Delivery Department. Ph.D. scientists of exceptional talent with least two (2) years of post-doctoral experience will be considered for this position. The successful candidate will be involved in the design, construction, commissioning, and operation of the Fermilab Muon Campus. The initial focus of this position will be preparation of the Muon Campus for running the Mu2e experiment. The Mu2e experiment is an intensity frontier experiment that will search for the coherent conversion of a muon into an electron in the field of an aluminum nucleus. Observation of this process would be a clear indication of physics beyond the standard model. In the long term, it is anticipated that there will be opportunities for involvement in a wide range of accelerator research and development activities in the Fermilab portfolio of accelerator physics.
This position has equivalent seniority to a university assistant professorship. This position is for an initial term of three years with a possible extension to a second three-year term. These initial terms are followed by an opportunity for an appointment to a term of indefinite duration on the Fermilab scientific staff.
As an organization, Fermilab is committed to attracting, developing, and retaining diverse talent and cultivating an inclusive work environment that supports scientific, technological, and operational excellence. Fermilab and the Wilson Fellowship Committee value candidates who show potential for growth, scientific leadership, and a commitment to the principles of diversity and inclusion. The successful candidate will be expected to respect and value individual differences and support an equitable and inclusive laboratory environment.
The successful candidate will be expected to abide by all environment, safety, and health regulations.
Education and Qualifications
Interested candidates should submit via Academic Jobs Online: 1) Cover letter, 2) Curriculum Vitae, 3) Research Statement, 4) Three or More Reference Letters (to be submitted by the reference writers at the AJO site).
