Applications are invited for a postdoctoral research associate to work with Prof. Jamal Jalilian-Marian on theoretical high-energy nuclear physics with emphasis on QCD and EIC-related topics. The position is for one year, starting in the Fall of 2026 (start date is very flexible and can be much earlier). Applicants should submit a CV, a statement of research, a list of publications, and arrange for three reference letters to be sent on their behalf.

Applications are invited for postdoctoral positions at the Southern Center for Nuclear-Science Theory (SCNT), Institute of Modern Physics, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Huizhou city, Guangdong province, China. The center was founded in 2022. Its current interest covers most physics topics related to the High-Intensity Heavy-ion Accelerator Facility (HIAF) and future upgrades. In particular, postdoctoral positions are opened for applicants in the areas of QCD, hadron physics, nucleon structure physics, muon physics, neutrino physics, vortex states physics, new physics, et. al.

We announce the opening of a postdoc position starting in 2026 with a flexible stating date at the Huizhou campus of the Institute of Modern Physics (IMP), Chinese Academy of Sciences. The position is for two years. The base salary is about 300k RMB/year including taxes. Candidates should have a Ph.D degree at the starting date and they should be under 35 years old.

We're looking for exceptional candidates for a postdoc position at CENPA at the University of Washington on the Project 8 and KATRIN experiments, using techniques from AMO and nuclear physics to measure neutrino mass. The successful candidate would do both hardware and analysis, contributing to getting results soon from a mature experiment and becoming a leader on an up-and-coming one.
