Dear Colleague,

the Physics Department of the State University of New York at Buffalo
intends to build up a group in Experimental High Energy and/or
Experimental Astro-particle Physics over the next few years, with an expected
total of three faculty lines. This is a major new initiative of the Department
with the intension to build an experimental focus area which complements the
very successful experimental condensed matter group. The experimental high
energy physics group is also expected to work closely with the existing high
energy theory/phenomenology/cosmology group. There are major high energy
experimental groups at Rochester, Cornell, Toronto and Cleveland, all
within one to three hours driving distance from Buffalo.

To initiate the group we seek to fill a faculty position
in experimental elementary particle physics, preferably at the Associate
or Full Professor level. However, outstanding candidates at the
Assistant Professor level with exceptional promise for initiating a new
group will also be considered. We especially welcome applications from
qualified members of protected groups. The University at Buffalo is an
Equal Opportunity Employer/Recruiter.

We would be grateful if you would bring this position to the attention of
your colleagues. Further information about the position is provided below
and in the enclosed file attachment (pdf file).

In addition, we would greatly appreciate your advice on physicists whom
you feel deserve our serious consideration. Thank you in advance for
taking the time to send us your suggestions of candidates (by either
letter or email).  Your remarks will of course be treated in confidence.

with best regards

Ulrich Baur
