Dear colleagues,

I am writing to let you know that we are hoping to make one or more
postdoctoral appointments to begin 1 September, 2021, at the Center
for Theoretical Physics at MIT, as advertised at
https://academicjobsonline.org/ajo/MIT/CTP . If you have students or
junior colleagues who might be interested in these positions, please
let them know of the opportunity and encourage them to apply. For full
consideration, applications should be received by 11.59pm US Eastern
time on November 15, 2020.

We have three searches within the following broad areas:

https://academicjobsonline.org/ajo/jobs/16921: the theory of Quantum
Information Science / Quantum Computing. In addition to our usual
topics, we are also interested in a postdoc who can work at the
intersection of quantum information and plasma physics, to design
quantum algorithms for solving plasma physics and fusion-relevant
problems.

https://academicjobsonline.org/ajo/jobs/16922: nuclear theory, with
emphases that include lattice gauge theory, chiral perturbation
theory, hadron structure, factorization, effective theories, heavy
quark physics, jet physics, quark-gluon plasma in QCD and other gauge
theories, connections to string theory, and QCD at high density.

https://academicjobsonline.org/ajo/jobs/16923 : all areas of particle
physics, phenomenology, cosmology, astroparticle physics, quantum
field theory, quantum information, quantum gravity, string theory, and
research connecting high energy physics, condensed matter physics,
mathematics, and other related areas.

Candidates whose research aligns with more than one of these areas, or
who are unsure if their research fits the description for a given
position, are encouraged to apply for all CTP positions that may be
relevant to them. The CTP seeks a broad and diverse applicant pool,
and welcomes applications from candidates at the intersections of
(sub)fields.

Best regards,
Tracy Slatyer
(for the hiring committee)
