POSTDOCTORAL POSITION INSTITUTE FOR THEORETICAL PHYSICS

KARLSRUHE INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY

The Institute for Theoretical Physics at the University of Karlsruhe (Karlsruhe Institute of Technology, South Campus) invites applications for a postdoctoral position in THEORETICAL PARTICLE PHYSICS, with special focus on quantum field theory and cosmology.

Pending final approval, this position will be part of a new 5-year project on Astroparticle Physics funded by the Helmholtz Association (see the paragraph below for general information on the HAP project). The initial appointment of this position is for two years, with starting date 1 October, 2011 (or earlier if preferred).

The Helmholtz alliance for Astroparticle Physics (HAP) is a research network supported by the Helmholtz Association. HAP aims to bring astroparticle physics in Germany to an unprecedented level of cooperation among the two Helmholtz Centers KIT and DESY, 15 German universities, 3 Max Plank Institutes, and 2 external research partners. HAP intends to significantly advance the dynamic field of astroparticle physics, an interdisciplinary research area at the intersections of particle physics, astrophysics, astronomy, and cosmology.

Applicants for this position should provide a curriculum vitae, a list of publications, and a description of their research interests. They should send their application to the address below, preferably by regular mail. In addition, two letters of recommendation should be sent directly to:

Prof. Dr. Frans R. Klinkhamer
