<div class="">Dear Colleagues:<br class="">
<br class="">
We anticipate having an opening for a postdoc position in our
group in Jyväskylä next fall, and we would appreciate if you could
bring the following announcement to the attention of potential
applicants. <br class="">
<br class="">
Thanks in advance,<br class="">

The Ultrarelativistic Heavy Ion Physics Theory group at the
Department of Physics of the University of Jyväskylä, Finland,
will have an opening for a postdoc position starting
September/October 2016. The group's research emphasis is on QCD
theory and relativistic heavy ion phenomenology. In particular we
have interests in small-x physics, out-of-equilibrium field
theory, parton distributions and perturbative QCD processes, hard
and electromagnetic probes and hydrodynamical modeling of heavy
ion collisions.<br class="">
<br class="">
The Department of Physics in Jyväskylä offers a pleasant and
stimulating research environment with interactions between the
Heavy Ion Theory group and experimentalists working in the ALICE
collaboration, and also contacts to researchers in particle
physics, cosmology and lower-energy nuclear physics. Close
contacts are also maintained with the lattice and finite
temperature field theory groups in Helsinki.<br class="">
<br class="">
We invite candidates with research interests and experience in any
of the fields represented in our group to apply. The appointment
will be made for 1+1 years.<br class="">
<br class="">
The required qualification is a Ph.D. or equivalent in theoretical
high-energy or nuclear physics. Review of the applications will
start on December 14, 2015, but applications received later will
be considered until the position is filled.<br class="">
<br class="">
Interested applicants should send their curriculum vitae, list of
publications and research interest statement, and arrange for two
or three letters of recommendation to be sent, by email
(preferred) to <a href="mailto:tuomas.v.v.lappi@jyu.fi" class="">tuomas.v.v.lappi@jyu.fi</a>
or by mail to<br class="">
