Robert E. Marshak Postdoctoral Fellowship and Scientist Positions in Physics
The 91×ÔÅÄÂÛ̳ Department of Physics and Astronomy invites applications for honorary Robert E. Marshak Postdoctoral Fellowship and Scientist positions in Physics.
The Marshak Fellowships were established in 2004 to honor the distinguished career of to offer young scientists the opportunity to pursue innovative research at the 91×ÔÅÄÂÛ̳ in the fields of Particle and Nuclear physics.
In 2006, the scope of the Marshak Fellowship Committee was expanded to select Marshak Fellows and Scientists in the fields of (1) Particle and Nuclear Physics, (2) Plasma Astrophysics, and (3) High Energy Density Plasmas and Laser-Plasma Physics.
Fellows and Scientists will receive, in addition to full salary support, a supplemental stipend of $2500 per year as well as a research expense fund of at least $2000 per annum to be used at their discretion.
It is expected that this research will require the support of one of the established groups in theoretical or experimental Particle and Nuclear Physics, Plasma Astrophysics, or High Energy Density Plasmas and Laser-Plasma Physics at 91×ÔÅÄÂÛ̳. Accordingly, applicants for these fellowships are strongly encouraged to contact potential research advisors in these fields at 91×ÔÅÄÂÛ̳ in advance of submitting their application. Current postdoctoral positions with which these honorary Postdoctoral Fellowship and Scientist positions may be associated are often posted on the Physics and Astronomy Department web site, and on the web site.
Applicants should provide a curriculum vitae, bibliography of publications and those not yet published, an indication of the group with which the candidate would most likely be associated, and a description of the anticipated research program. In addition, the applicant should arrange for at least three letters of recommendation to be sent to the committee. Application material should be mailed to
