About the position
Position Description
The Theoretical High Energy Physics Group at the Institute for Physics at Johannes Gutenberg-University Mainz offers several positions at the postdoctoral level (TV-L E13).
The group will consist of Marzia Bordone, Tobias Hurth, Hans Jockers, Joachim Kopp, Matthias Neubert, Pedro Schwaller, Vasily Sotnikov, Stefan Weinzierl, Felix Yu, and Jens Erler, as well as a significant number of postdoctoral fellows, PhD and master students. The interests of the group cover a wide range of topics in particle and astroparticle physics, cosmology, field theory, string theory, and mathematical physics. More detailed information about the group can be found here: www.thep.physik.uni-mainz.de/. Interested candidates in all related fields are invited to apply and should indicate their previous experience and topical preference in their application material. Applicants for the ERC advanced grant "Effective field theory for non-global observable at hadron colliders" led by Matthias Neubert should specifically indicate their previous experience with SCET and collider physics.
Our research activities are integrated with the Excellence Cluster "Precision Physics, Fundamental Interactions and Structure of Matter" (PRISMA++) in Mainz (www.prisma.uni-mainz.de). The proximity to the Mainz Institute for Theoretical Physics (mitp.uni-mainz.de/) ensures excellent opportunities for international collaboration. In addition, postdocs can profit from exchange agreements with ICTP/SAIFR (Sao Paulo), Fermilab, and the Tata Institute (TIFR, Mumbai).
The deadline for applications and related materials is December 16, 2026. Later applications will be considered until the positions are filled.
