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.

Successful applicants are expected to work on theoretical hadron physics and related fields with Shunzo Kumano at the IMP, especially on structure functions of hadrons at high energies. Applicants with broad interests in related particle and nuclear physics fields are also welcome to apply.

The Huizhou campus is a new campus of IMP and it started a few years ago (https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://english.imp.cas.cn/about/multimedia…$ ). It is becoming one of world's activity centers in hadron physics by hosting domestic and international conferences. The High-Intensity Heavy Ion Accelerator Facility (HIAF) will be ready soon. There are large international airports nearby in Guangzhou, Shenzhen, and Hong Kong, so that access is easy from major cities in China and foreign countries.

An applicant should send a curriculum vitae including date of birth and Ph.D date, a list of publications, and a research plan. One also needs to arrange at least two reference letters to be sent directly by the referees. The review will start with receiving the application documents and will continue until the positions are filled.
