JEFFERSON LAB Theory Center Postdoctoral Positions 2016

The Jefferson Lab Theory Center expects to have up to four postdoctoral positions from September 2016 to join a program of research in theoretical hadronic and nuclear physics that motivates and supports JLab experiments at 12 GeV and beyond.
This includes:

Calculation of the properties of light nuclei and their electroweak interactions using Quantum Monte Carlo methods;

Studies of strong coupling QCD on the lattice and in the continuum to compute the spectrum, decays, transition form factors and multidimensional structure of hadrons;

The application of Effective Field Theories to nuclear and hadronic properties;

The application of perturbative QCD to single and multi-dimensional hadron distributions (both TMDs and GPDs), and their extraction from data applying QCD factorization theorems;

The application of scattering theory methods to the phenomenology of multi-hadron final states relevant for the spectroscopy program at JLab and elsewhere;

and the implication of all such studies for a future electron-ion collider.
