Job description: In the context of the IAP "Fundamental interactions", the IFPA group at the Université de Liège and the ELEM group at the Vrije Universiteit Brussel offer a 2-year postdoctoral fellowship, to be held jointly in both groups, the first year being funded by the VUB and the next by the ULg. The successful candidate will join the H1 collaboration to perform the theoretical analysis of the final F2 diffractive data and will keep close contact with both groups. We are thus looking for a phenomenologist with ample knowledge of evolution equations, and good computer skills.
The IFPA group at the Université de Liège consists of about 15 theorists, and studies many aspects of hadronic physics, from low-energy nuclear physics to the Tevatron (including quark models, diffractive physics, deep-inelastic scattering, nuclear matter, heavy-ion collisions, off-diagonal structure functions, quantum few-body problems and symetries).
The research of the ELEM team is developed in the framework of the Inter-University Institute for High Energies - IIHE (VUB- ULB-UA), which consists of about 70 experimentalists. At present, 12 of them are part of the H1 collaboration. The main activities in the IIHE group have been centered on the study of diffraction: vector meson production, deeply virtual Compton scattering, diffraction, diffractive jet; and on the study of the characteristics of the hadronic final states. A new proton spectrometer under the responsibility of the IIHE group has been installed in H1 in 2005 to measure the scatteredproton in diffraction with a high acceptance. The data are currentlybeing analysed by the IIHE group and should provide new diffractivestructure function measurement with improved precision.
This post will remain open until a suitable candidate is found. The salary will be of the order of 2000 euros/month and the fellowship is non taxable.
Individuals interested should send a curriculum vitae, a list of publications, a research statement and two letters of reference, to:
