About this position

The Theory Group at the Max Planck Institute for Physics in Garching is planning postdoctoral appointments starting in autumn 2027. The group is led by directors Georgi Dvali, Johannes Henn, Dieter Lüst, and Giulia Zanderighi, alongside staff members and group leaders including Arnd Behring, Lasha Berezhiani, Ralph Blumenhagen, Rhorry Gauld, Ulrich Haisch, Dmitri Pavlov, Georg Raffelt, Martin Schmaltz, Frank Steffen, Stephan Stieberger, Cristian Vergu, and Qinglin Yang.

The research environment is centered on a broad range of topics in theoretical and phenomenological particle physics. The advertised postdoctoral positions connect to work relevant for the LHC and future colliders, as well as studies of physics beyond the Standard Model, effective field theories, scattering amplitudes, string theory, astroparticle physics, cosmology, gravitational theories, and mathematical and non-perturbative aspects of field theory.

The position is based at the Max Planck Institute for Physics (Werner Heisenberg Institute) in Garching bei München, within the wider Max Planck research environment. The advert emphasizes equal opportunity and welcomes applications from women and qualified candidates with disabilities.
