Job Description

The University of Wisconsin – Madison (UW) is searching for postdoctoral scholars to work on multi-messenger and particle astrophysics, specifically focusing on neutrino astronomy with IceCube and gamma-ray astronomy with the Cherenkov Telescope Array (CTA) and the High-Altitude Water Cherenkov Gamma-ray Observatory (HAWC). We anticipate hiring three positions:

  1. A postdoc focused on high-energy neutrino data analysis for IceCube
  2. A postdoc focused on gamma-ray data analysis and instrumentation for CTA
  3. A postdoc focused on gamma-ray data analysis for HAWC

Successful applicants will work within UW’s Wisconsin IceCube Particle Astrophysics Center (WIPAC). Although each position will be focused on a particular project, WIPAC is a center for multi-messenger astrophysics and includes opportunities for cross-collaboration between projects. The postdocs will work closely with WIPAC faculty (Ke Fang, Francis Halzen, Kael Hanson, Albrecht Karle, Lu Lu, Justin Vandenbroucke) as well as WIPAC students and other postdocs.
