Assistant Research Professor
in Experimental Nuclear Physics

The Department of Physics of The George Washington University has an opening for an Assistant Research Professor in Experimental Nuclear Physics, for a three-year term, starting September 1, 2005. We seek a person for this non-tenure-accruing faculty position who will be concerned mainly with our experimental program in Hall B at Jefferson Lab. This program involves experiments with tagged-photon beams having circular or linear polarization. The primary experimental skills necessary for this position are expertise in data acquisition and data analysis, but experience with nuclear particle and radiation detectors is also very valuable. In addition to research activities, the holder of this position will teach one course per semester or the equivalent. This position is intended for a person having a few years of experience in experimental nuclear physics beyond the Ph.D. degree. Prior experience in medium-energy nuclear physics, electromagnetic interactions, and/or few-body nuclei is essential.

Each applicant should send a curriculum vitae and a one-page statement of his or her research/career goals, and have at least three letters of reference sent to Professor B.L. Berman, Chair, ENP Search Committee, Department of Physics, The George Washington University, Washington, D.C. 20052 [fax: (202) 994-3001; e-mail: berman@gwu.edu]. We encourage potential candidates to visit our web site at http://www.gwu.edu/~cns. Review of applications will begin on March 1, 2005 and will continue until the position is filled. The George Washington University is an Equal Opportunity-Affirmative Action Employer.



Assistant Professor
in Theoretical Nuclear Physics

The Department of Physics at The George Washington University invites applications for a tenure-track Assistant Professor position in Theoretical Nuclear Physics, with an expertise in computational methods, starting in the Fall of 2005. The successful candidate is required to have a Ph.D. in physics and an outstanding record of research accomplishment in theoretical nuclear physics. The candidate is expected to complement and enhance the existing research efforts in the Department, as well as to foster collaborations across departments on topics of common interest in computational methods. The new faculty member will join the Center for Nuclear Studies (CNS), which brings together the theoretical, phenomenological, and experimental nuclear physics efforts of the Department. Current theoretical research areas in the Department of Physics include medium-energy nuclear physics (hadron dynamics, excited baryons, meson production) and lattice QCD calculations (with a focus on hadronic observables). In close relation, the GW/SAID Data Analysis Center actively pursues the phenomenological modeling of photon- and meson-induced reactions. The Department is also home to a large group in experimental nuclear physics that is involved in experiments at Jefferson Lab, MAMI, HIGS, and Lund. The candidate is expected to provide theoretical guidance for these efforts as well. In addition, the candidate is required to teach effectively at both undergraduate and graduate levels.

Applicants should forward a current CV, a research plan, a statement of teaching experience and interests, and arrange to have three letters of reference sent to: Prof. Cornelius Bennhold, Search Committee, Department of Physics, 725 21st Street, NW, The George Washington University, Washington, DC 20052. Review of applications will begin on 1 February 2005 and continue until the position is filled. The George Washington University is an equal-opportunity, affirmative-action employer.
