Postdoctoral Research Fellowship in Physics - This
two year fellowship, within the Physics Department is intended to increase
the participation of those population groups historically under-represented
in the field of physics. It is available to qualified postdoctoral
candidates in three major areas: high energy physics, nuclear physics and
condensed matter physics. The Physics Department is renowned for its
experimental programs at major BNL facilities including the Relativistic
Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC), the Alternating Gradient Synchrotron (AGS), the
National Synchrotron Light Source (NSLS), and the forthcoming Center for
Functional Nanomaterials (CFN), as well as for a very strong theory program
encompassing all research areas. Normally beginning October 1st, this
Fellowship is open to United States citizens and holders of immigrant visas
who have recently obtained Ph.D.’s in Physics or who will complete degree
requirements before employment. Candidates will be judged on achievement in
physics and letters of recommendation. Brookhaven National Laboratory will
continue to direct special emphasis toward the recruitment of minority and
female Ph.D.’s in order to offset the historic imbalance faced by these
under-represented groups within the research community. To apply please send
a complete CV, three letters of reference and a statement outlining your
research interests at BNL to: Marsha R. Kipperman, Bldg. 185, Brookhaven
National Laboratory, PO Box 5000, Upton, New York 11973-5000. or

The RIKEN BNL Research Center (RBRC) at Brookhaven
National Laboratory, together with university partners, invites applications
for a program of cooperative fellowships in strong interaction theoretical
physics motivated by the experimental heavy-ion and proton spin programs of
the Relativistic Heavy ion Collider at BNL. Each RHIC Physics Fellow will be
jointly selected and supported for five years by the Center and one of the
cooperating universities and will hold a tenure track faculty appointment
(or equivalent) in that university’s Physics Department. Each fellow will
spend about half time at RBRC and the remaining time at the university.
Candidates should have a Ph.D. degree in theoretical nuclear or particle
physics and be interested in pursuing theoretical research within a broad
range of hadron physics, such as high energy nuclear theory, RHIC physics,
QCD (perturbative and lattice), hadronic spin physics, hadronic spectra and
their transition matrix elements. Scientists with appropriate backgrounds
who are interested in applying should send a curriculum vitae, publication
list, a brief description of their research interests, and arrange three
letters of reference to be sent to Dr. Nicholas P. Samios, Director, RIKEN
BNL Research Center, Building 510A, Brookhaven National Laboratory, P.O. Box
