The Faculty of Science at Lund University has four openings for associate senior lecturers (assistant professors). The full description and instructions on how to apply can be found at: https://lu.varbi.com/en/what:job/jobID:446839/type:job/where:4/apply:1

These positions are tenure-track, for up to 6 years, and intended for researchers with max 5 years of effective research time after their PhD. Although these positions are open for applications from researchers in any of the listed science areas, it is necessary that the proposed research program is in line with the current research groups at the Science Faculty. Therefore, for applicants in experimental particle physics, please get in contact with the local experimental particle physics group: https://particlephysics.physics.lu.se/ before you consider sending in an application.

The Lund experimental particle physics group is active within several experimental collaborations, mainly ALICE, ATLAS, and LDMX, but we are also looking at future possibilities like for instance fundamental physics experiments at the European Spallation Source (ESS). We are looking for a new colleague to strengthen existing activities but are open for new ideas and directions within our projects.

We contribute to both hardware, software, and data analysis in all of our experiments. In ALICE, the Lund group focuses on the TPC and the new vertex detector, as well as particle ID, small systems, and fluctuations. The ATLAS group is involved in the tracker upgrade and luminosity measurements, and on the analysis side we have several activities involving searches for new phenomena, such as dark matter and exotic Higgs bosons. The local LDMX group has major responsibilities for physics coordination, simulation, and the hadronic calorimeter. At the ESS we have currently minor involvements in the collaboration developing the HIBEAM/NNBAR experiment and also the proposed neutrino experiments, ESSnuSB and coherent neutrino-nucleon scattering.

The Lund experimental particle physics group is even contributing to scientific computing and has a long-standing collaborations with the Lund particle physics phenomenology group.
