Adelaide, South Australia UNIVERSITY OF ADELAIDE Full time

(Level B) $107,276 to $126,894 per annum plus an employer contribution of 17% superannuation

Three fixed term positions for two years starting in 2024 with possible extension for a third year.

The ARC Grant-Funded Researchers (level B) will work to support the experimental program of the Australian Research Council Centre of Excellence for Dark Matter Particle Physics -



We are seeking to appoint three experimental physicists as Grant-Funded Researchers within the Adelaide Node of the Centre.

Successful applicants will collaborate closely with other Centre nodes supporting the Centre's broad experimental program in collider physics, direct detection and detector development, with a focus on the experimental detection of dark matter and physics beyond the standard model. The School of Physics, Chemistry and Earth Sciences hosts strong groups working on the ATLAS, Belle II, IceCube, CTA, HESS, LIGO, SABRE and Pierre Auger experiments. Close collaboration between theorists and experimentalists is actively encouraged.

One of the positions will have a focus on the detection of dark matter in the ATLAS experiment being carried out at the Large Hadron Collider at CERN. One position will have a focus on instrumentation and direct detection in the SABRE experiment being carried out at the Stawell Underground Physics Laboratory (SUPL), in Australia, and at Laboratori Nazionali del Gran Sasso (LNGS), in Italy, and, on the design, testing and construction of the next generation of direct detection experiments including directional dark matter experiments such as CYGNUS. The Centre is also involved in axion detection experiments such as ADMX at the University of Washington. The third position can be in either area. The successful candidates will be encouraged to be involved across a range of the activities in the Centre's experimental program.

To be successful you will need:

PhD or equivalent degree (or thesis submitted) in experimental particle and/or nuclear physics in an area of relevance to the Centre.
A commitment to research excellence in experimental particle/nuclear physics and a demonstrated publication track record in leading scientific journals.
Demonstrated ability to conduct independent research and to work effectively as a member of a research team.
Very good verbal, written, communication, interpersonal, organisational and time management skills.
Advanced technical and computational skills, including demonstrated ability to build, test and model advanced experimental equipment.
