POSITION DESCRIPTION

The van Bibber Lab at University of California, Berkeley (UCB) is accepting applications for a postdoctoral researcher in the area of particle astrophysics, and the search for ultralight dark matter, particularly the axion or axion-like particles.  The successful candidate will participate in one or more of several experimental ongoing dark matter searches within the van Bibber group (HAYSTAC, DM Radio, ALPHA, Green Bank Telescope data-mining, and supporting technology development). This work will involve R&D on novel microwave resonators, metamaterials, superconducting magnets, data analysis, and dissemination of results through publications and conference presentations. The postdoc will travel periodically for collaborative work at partner universities and laboratories. An important duty of the position is mentoring of undergraduate and graduate students in the group. The postdoc is expected to prepare research results for publication in peer-reviewed journals and provide presentation of research results at conferences/meetings.
