Ok so I am not applying any time soon, so this isn't really an urgent question, but I'm not really sure who I would ask for a letter of recommendation when the time comes. I am working for a physics professor at the moment, but he is very busy and has multiple projects that keep him busy. Therefore, on a daily basis I work very closely with a post-doc and maybe talk with the actual professor 3-5 hours a week. Obviously the post doc knows me much better than the professor, so is it acceptable to get a recommendation from him or do schools prefer that it is from the actual professor?
