Postdoctoral Research Fellow in Particle Physics (CERN research) ref 213119

The new Norwegian centre for CERN research is looking for a motivated and talented postdoctor that can contribute to the next operational period of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN starting 2021. Norway is member of the ATLAS experiment at LHC. ATLAS is designed to search for new physics in proton-proton collisions and was key to the discovery of the Higgs boson in 2012. The current research focus of the Oslo group is now on precision measurements of the Higgs boson and searches for new particles such as supersymmetric particles, exotic particles and dark matter candidates.

The successful candidate will work at the heart of LHC research in an international environment at a very exciting time for the LHC experiments with the arrival of the new data from Run 3. It is a great opportunity to acquire cutting-edge physics analysis, computational (e.g. machine learning) and detector development skills in a very interactive and social group. The candidate is expected to strengthen the group’s work on Higgs boson studies and Dark Matter related searches. If the candidate has an interest in statistics and computational science in the direction of machine learning this is a plus.
