high-energy/astrophysics group at Brown University comprises seven experimentalists and eight theorists. The CMS group presently consists of three faculty members. The group has a strong research program with the CMS detector at the CERN LHC. The group plays a leading role in a variety of physics analyses in Higgs physics, searches for new physics at high energy and in rare decays, and top quark physics. The group participates in the operation of the CMS silicon tracker and hadron calorimeter, and holds leadership roles in the CMS Phase 2 upgrade program, in the areas of silicon tracker and endcap calorimeter, as well as in future upgrades. The successful candidate will develop an innovative research program to join our existing effort in collider physics with the CMS experiment as well as help shape the future direction of the group. The candidate will be expected to attract external research funding, and excel in teaching and advising undergraduate and graduate students.
