Hi,
I would like to inform you of a faculty position in nuclear physics that
has been approved at the University of Kansas. Please pass this information
on to anyone you think might be interested. The hope is to find someone who
will be interested in working on Brahms, although this is not a
requirement. The Department usually
hires people with postdoctoral experience. We have also, however, hired
directly out of graduate school when a candidate has been found to be
truly exceptional.
Regards, Steve

The Department of Physics & Astronomy invites applications for a tenure
track faculty position in experimental nuclear physics at the Assistant
Professor level. Candidates must have a Ph.D. in Physics and experience in
experimental nuclear physics. A successful candidate will have a developing
research program with evidence of creativity. We will give preference to
interactive researchers whose experience and interests are relevant to RHIC
based high-ion reaction studies. The Department's current program involves
nuclear reaction studies through participation in the BRAHMS experiment at
RHIC. Lecturing ability and an interest in teaching are required. Initial
review of applications will begin on January 21, 2002 and will continue
until the position is filled. Candidates should send a curriculum vitae, a
list of publications and a statement of research and teaching interests, and
arrange to have sent three letters of reference to R.G. Ammar, Chair,
Department of Physics & Astronomy, Malott Hall, 1251 Wescoe Hall Dr, Room
1082, Lawrence KS 66045-7582. See:

on final budgetary approval. EO/AA Employer.
Position Description:
The Department of Physics and Astronomy at the University of Kansas,
Lawrence, seeks to fill a tenure-track faculty position in experimental
nuclear physics. The appointment will be made at the rank of Assistant
Professor. The position is contingent on final budgetary approval. Further
particulars regarding this position are listed below:
Starting Date: No sooner than August 19, 2002
Length of Appointment: This is a 9-month, tenure-track position
Salary: $51-55k depending upon appointeeıs qualifications and experience.
Duties: Research in experimental nuclear physics, teaching physics at the
undergraduate and graduate levels, and service work.
Required Qualifications: Applicants must have a Ph.D. in Physics and
experience in experimental nuclear physics. Lecturing ability and an
interest in teaching are required. Applicants must also demonstrate strong
evidence of independent research capabilities in experimental nuclear
physics.
Preferred Qualifications: The following qualifications are preferred and may
be used for distinguishing among candidates who meet the general required
qualifications above: (1) post-doctoral research experience in
accelerator-based experiments in low-energy nuclear physics and/or
relativistic heavy-ion nuclear physics; (2) research interests that are
relevant to relativistic heavy-ion nuclear physics studies; (3) evidence of
teaching experience (such as graduate teaching assistantships); (4) evidence
of teaching excellence. The Departmentıs current program involves nuclear
reaction studies through participation in the BRAHMS experiment at RHIC.
Contact Person: Professor R.G. Ammar; (phone) 785-864-4626, (fax)
