Tenure Track position
FERMILAB THEORETICAL ASTROPHYSICS GROUP

The Fermilab Theoretical Astrophysics Group announces an opening for an Associate Scientist, a tenure track position equivalent to Assistant Professor. This is the first of several positions anticipated over the next few years. The Theoretical Astrophysics Group is part of the new Fermilab Astrophysics Center. The group has a wide range of interests, including theories of the early Universe and their connection to particle physics and string theory; cosmic microwave background; large-scale structure and evolution including studies of its formation via numerical simulations and analysis; dark matter and dark energy, and other topics in particle astrophysics. Our work on cosmological implications of physics beyond the Standard Model overlaps with the interests of the Fermilab Particle Theory group. We also work closely with the experimental astrophysics program, which includes the Sloan Digital Sky Survey, the Pierre Auger Project, the Cryogenic Dark Matter Search, and the Dark Energy Survey and Super Nova Acceleration Probe.

Currently, there are four staff members (Scott Dodelson, Joshua Frieman, Edward Kolb, and Albert Stebbins) and five post-docs (including one long term fellow) in the group. Interested applicants should send a curriculum vitae (including a brief statement of research interests), and arrange for three letters of recommendation to be sent to: Faculty Search Committee; Theoretical Astrophysics Group; Fermilab; MS-209, P.O. Box 500; Batavia, IL 60510 USA. To receive full consideration, applications should be received before November 15, 2004.
Update 11/16/2004: We are still accepting applications.
