HEP Theory at Los Alamos

The Theoretical High Energy Physics group at Los Alamos National Laboratory is active in a number of diverse areas of research. Their primary areas of interest are in physics beyond the Standard Model, cosmology, dark matter, lattice quantum chromodynamics, neutrinos, the fundamentals of quantum field theory and gravity, and particle astrophysics.

LANL Particle Physics Seminars

The talks are usually held at 10:30 am on Thursdays, in the T-DO conference room (TA-3, bld 123).

Current post-docs are

Recent post-docs include: Haiyu Duan (UNM, faculty), Leanne Duffy (Los Alamos, staff scientist), Maurizio Giannotti (Barry U., faculty), Jim Jenkins (Los Alamos, staff scientist), Ian Shoemaker (CP3, post-doc), Lucca Vecchi (University of Maryland, postdoc). A historical list of post-docs at the former T-6 and T-8 can be found here .

Workshops

The HEP theory group holds annual workshops in Santa Fe. The themes of these workshops in the recent past reflected topical interest in dark matter, neutrinos and TeV-scale physics.

Job openings

The group expects to make at least one post-doctoral appointment beginning Fall 2014. The Laboratory also has a number of Distinguished Prize Fellowships that are awarded based on a laboratory-wide competition. See our job ad in the INSPIRE database and apply on the academicjobsonline.org website. Send questions to t8-postdoc-queries@lanl.gov. The deadline for receiving all application material for the Feynman, Oppenheimer and Director's Fellowships is Nov. 25, 2013.
