Assistant Professor - Experimental High Energy Physics
Department
Physics & Astronomy-1092
Description Of Work
The Department of Physics and Astronomy at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln ( UNL ) seeks outstanding candidates for a tenure-track Assistant Professor in High Energy Physics ( HEP ) to start in August 2025. The Nebraska HEP group presently consists of three faculty experimentalists (K. Bloom, D. Claes, I. Kravchenko), one faculty theorist (P. Huang), a detector physicist, four postdoctoral researchers, and graduate and undergraduate students. The primary focus of the group is on the Compact Muon Solenoid ( CMS ) experiment at CERN’s Large Hadron Collider ( LHC ).
The group has significant responsibilities and expertise in the construction of silicon pixel detectors, CMS tracker operations, software and computing operations, and has strong participation in a variety of physics analyses. In addition, members of the group participate in particle astrophysics experiments, including neutrino telescopes at the South Pole and Greenland, and the nationally recognized Cosmic Ray Observatory Project ( CROP ), an educational program for Nebraska high-school students. The successful candidate will be expected to play a leadership role in the CMS Experiment in both physics measurements and detector operations or upgrades.
Questions about the position may be addressed to the Search Committee chair, Dan Claes (
