Editor for the Review of Particle Physics
Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory: Physics Division
Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory is seeking an individual
with a strong background in particle physics to be the editor
of the Review of Particle Physics (RPP), a publication of the
international Particle Data Group. The editor will have final
responsibility for producing the RPP book and its web edition.
This position requires good editing and computing skills as
well as an understanding of the physics issues. The individual
must maintain current knowledge of particle physics, although
the position does not involve doing particle physics research.
Substantial graduate work or Ph.D. in particle physics is
required plus significant scientific computing experience, with
background in databases preferred.
The position also involves the management of the RPP scientific
database and software. This requires expertise in use of TeX

The RPP editor will act as a consultant to others in the
international Particle Data Group to solve a wide variety of
