Field of Interest: hep-ex Experiment: FNAL-E-0973 , PSI-R-99-05 Deadline: 2012-04-30 Region: North America Job description: UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA, IRVINE POSTDOCTORAL SCHOLAR POSITIONS EXPERIMENTAL PARTICLE PHYSICS One or more postdoctoral research positions are available at the University of California, Irvine, in the experimental particle physics group of William Molzon. The group is doing two experi-ments to search for muon and electron number violation in processes involving muons (CLFV). One is MEG, a search for the decay μ+→e+γ at the Paul Scherrer Institute in Switzerland. We ex-pect to reach a branching fraction sensitivity approaching 10-13. We have reported a new upper limit of 2.4x10-12 and continue to collect additional data. The second is mu2e, a search for the process μ-N→e-N at Fermilab. We expect to reach sensitivity below 10-16. The position represent a unique opportunity for a young physicist both to get physics results from the most sensitive run...
