<p class="MsoNormal"><span class="">The Theoretical Division
at Los Alamos National Laboratory invites applications for
a staff scientist position in Nuclear Theory within the
T-2 group (Nuclear and Particle Physics, Astrophysics and
Cosmology). Candidates are expected to have a Ph.D. in
nuclear theory or a closely related field. The successful
candidate should have a demonstrated ability to conduct
independent research in nuclear theory or closely related
areas, as well as strong communication and leadership
skills. Areas of greatest interest in the group include
QCD / effective theories of QCD for hadronic and
quark-gluon plasma physics, nuclear structure and
astrophysics, and weak interactions and fundamental
symmetries. In addition to six full time staff scientists
working in basic nuclear theory, our group has expertise
in applied nuclear physics, particle physics,
astrophysics, cosmology, and plasma physics. Research at
the intersections of these areas with nuclear theory is
highly valued. Moreover, the Theoretical Division provides
a stimulating scientific environment and opportunities for
interdisciplinary science. The Division and the T-2 group
enjoy a highly visible postdoctoral program and are
actively involved in DOE Nuclear Theory topical
collaborations and SciDAC projects. </span></p>
<p class=""><span
style="font-size:12pt;font-family:"cambria","serif""
class="">Theorists in the Division actively collaborate
with experimentalists at LANL and beyond. The experimental
Nuclear Physics program at LANL makes critical
contributions to QCD and heavy ion physics (RHIC,
SeaQuest), neutrino physics (MAJORANA, accelerator
neutrinos), and precision neutron physics (neutron EDM,
lifetime, decay correlations). Incipient experimental
efforts in LHC, EIC, and FRIB science follow our
established theory thrusts in these areas. Candidates
whose research program overlaps with any of these
experimental efforts are encouraged to apply. </span></p>
<p class=""><span
style="font-size:12pt;font-family:"cambria","serif""
class="">Los Alamos is an equal-opportunity employer.
Women and minorities are strongly encouraged to apply. </span></p>
<p class=""><span
style="font-size:12pt;font-family:"cambria","serif""
class="">Application material (CV, brief statement of
research interests, and at least three letters of
recommendation) should be uploaded on the AJO website. For
full consideration application packages should be complete
by December 16, 2016. Review of applications will begin
the following week and will continue until the position is
filled. For further information please contact Vincenzo
