Announcements
The Hadron and Nuclear Theory group of the University of Barcelona (UB) will be offering a postdoc position as of March 1st, 2026 until 31st August 2027 (1,5y appointment).
The call will be officially opened at the UB around early January 2026. Since this is a "short-notice offer", we would like to ask you whether you can inform us of potential candidates, with a PhD by the time of the call, that would be interested in applying for this position. This will allow us to contact them beforehand and assist them with the paperwork.
The TRIUMF Theory Group has several Postdoc Fellow positions opening in fall of 2026. Postdoc hires are expected in particle theory (hep-ph), low-energy theoretical nuclear physics (nucl-th), and theoretical nuclear astrophysics (nucl-th, astro-ph).
The nuclear/subatomic theory group at McGill University invites application for a postdoctoral position in theoretical nuclear physics, starting in September 2026 (exact date to be determined). Our group (Professors Charles Gale and Sangyong Jeon, graduate students) is active in the field of hot and dense QCD matter in and out of equilibrium. Areas of interest include both soft and penetrating probes of heavy-ion collisions, relativistic viscous fluid dynamics, finite-temperature field theories, numerical modeling, and hadronic phenomenology.
The High-Energy Nuclear Theory Group at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) invites applications for a postdoctoral fellow position starting in Fall 2026.
Applications are invited for a Postdoctoral Research Scholar in the Department of Physics at NC State to work with Gail McLaughlin and Ian Roederer on theoretical nuclear and/or neutrino astrophysics topics related to the study of the origins of the elements and chemical abundances in metal-poor stars.
The Theory Group in the Physics Division at Argonne National Laboratory is now seeking candidates for postdoctoral positions in nuclear theory, to begin as early as Spring 2026.
The positions are for two years, with the possibility of one additional year contingent upon funding and performance. Applications received by 28 November 2025 will receive our fullest consideration.
The Medium Energy Physics (MEP) group at Argonne National Laboratory invites applications for multiple experimental postdoctoral researcher positions.
Depending on your background, your responsibilities may include research at Jefferson Lab, the Electron-Ion Collider (EIC) program, detector R&D, and applications of AI in nuclear physics. Applications received by Tuesday, November 4 will receive full consideration.
Brookhaven National Laboratory (BNL) has established a prestigious fellowship for early career researchers to attract the very best and brightest to Brookhaven. Named after BNL Nobel Laureate Raymond Davis Jr., this fellowship aims to cultivate future scientific leaders who wish to develop their careers at Brookhaven Lab. Applications are now being accepted for the fellowship program.
