Description

The University of Liverpool is seeking to appoint two postdoctoral researchers across a range of projects within a growing programme on precision muon physics, supported through funding from the Science and Technology Funding Council and a Leverhulme Trust International Professorship.

The Liverpool muon group is involved in data analysis for existing experiments and in the development of future experiments and theoretical techniques to study the properties of muons.

Liverpool participates in the Muon g-2 and Mu2e experiments at FNAL, Mu3e at PSI, and is a leader in the data-driven calculation of the hadronic contributions to g-2 which limit the accuracy of the SM prediction.

Liverpool is also involved in the development of the MUonE experiment at CERN and in preparations for a muon EDM measurement at PSI.

Any applicants who are still awaiting their PhD to be awarded should be aware that if successful, they will be appointed at grade 6, spine point 30.

Upon written confirmation that they have been successful in being awarded their PhD, they will be moved onto grade 7, spine point 31 from the date of their award.
