Director of Indiana University Cyclotron (IUCF)
Applications are invited for the directorship of the Indiana University Cyclotron Facility (IUCF). The IUCF has a diverse mission of multi-disciplinary research, service and education and also provides technical support and beam to the Midwest Proton Radiotherapy Institute (MPRI), one of only five such facilities in the United States.
We seek a scientist or a science manager with a distinguished record of accomplishment who will provide the vision, leadership, and entrepreneurial spirit needed to sustain and further IUCF"s outstanding scientific research efforts, and will support the partnership with MPRI in the development of new radiotherapy treatments, technologies and applications.
IUCF conducts research in a variety of areas, including accelerator physics, condensed matter physics, medical physics, nuclear physics, nuclear chemistry, radiation effects on materials and radiation biology. The facility collaborates closely with the nationally ranked nuclear physics program at Indiana University Bloomington, which is currently developing detectors for use at national facilities to study high-energy spin physics, fundamental neutron physics, and neutrino oscillations. The facility is also developing novel neutron scattering instrumentation for the Low-Energy Neutron Source at IUCF, which recently began operation. The director will serve a five-year term starting in the summer of 2008 and will receive a tenured professorship in the College of Arts and Sciences. Salary will be commensurate with experience and qualifications. Nominations are welcome. Applications with a complete resume, including the names of four references, should be sent as soon as possible to:Professor Alex Dzierba

The Department of Physics at Indiana University invites applications for a tenure-track Assistant Professor position in Theoretical High Energy and/or Theoretical Nuclear Physics for an anticipated appointment beginning Fall 2008. We are seeking highly qualified candidates who will complement or expand upon current research activities of the High Energy Theory and/or Nuclear Theory group focused particularly on any aspect of sub-nuclear physics, astro-particle physics or nuclear astrophysics. The current research directions include nuclear and astro-particle physics, beyond standard model phenomenology, tests of Lorentz and CPT symmetry, lattice QCD and hadron phenomenology and nuclear structure.
Applicants should have a Ph.D., an outstanding research record and commitment to excellence in teaching at both undergraduate and graduate level. The Indiana University Physics Department currently has 37 faculty carrying out research in Accelerator Physics, Experimental Nuclear and High Energy Physics, Condensed Matter and Material Science, and Biophysics.
Applications should be submitted via email to physsrch@indiana.edu or by mail toTheoretical Physics Search,
Physics Department,
Indiana University,
Bloomington, IN 47405Interested applicants should submit a letter of application and curriculum vitae with list of publications, a description of research interests, and arrange for submission of a minimum of three letters of reference. Review of applications will begin on January 15, 2008 and will continue until the position is filled. Further information about the IU physics department can be found at

The Department of Physics at Indiana University invites applications for a senior-level faculty position in experimental nuclear physics for an anticipated appointment beginning Fall 2008. We seek an outstanding scientist, an intellectual leader in the field who is interested in joining one of the top nuclear physics groups in the US. A commitment to excellence in teaching at the undergraduate and graduate level is essential. Current research activities of the group include high energy spin physics, hadron structure studies with neutrinos and polarized protons, neutrino oscillation physics, spectroscopy of exotic hadrons, fundamental neutron physics, and several electric dipole moment searches. We expect the successful candidate will expand our research in new directions, and applications from all areas of nuclear physics are welcome. The experimental nuclear physics group is a key part of the Indiana University Cyclotron Facility (IUCF), a multipurpose laboratory which conducts and supports basic research in nuclear physics, nuclear chemistry, accelerator physics, condensed matter and the life sciences.
Interested candidates are encouraged to contact Professor Mike Snow at snow@iucf.indiana.edu or (812)-855-7914, and to submit a letter of application, current curriculum vitae and arrange for submission of a minimum of six letters of reference to Kathy Hirons at khirons@indiana.edu (or by mail to Professor Mike Snow, Faculty Search, Department of Physics, 727 E. 3rd St., Bloomington, IN, 47405-7105).
