The Physics Department at Sapienza is a vibrant work environment, involved in several areas of physics. The High Energy Theory Group includes Marco Bonvini, Andrea Caputo, Roberto Contino, Angelo Esposito, Marco Nardecchia, Paolo Pani, Mauro Papinutto, Antonello Polosa, Luca Silvestrini, Alfredo Urbano and Mauro Valli, as well as a number of postdocs and Ph.D. students.

We also have close ties with our neighboring institutions (University of Rome3, University of Tor Vergata and INFN Frascati Labs). 

Candidates with expertise in dark matter direct and indirect detection, beyond the Standard Model physics, low energy effective field theories, as well as the condensed matter aspects of material response, are particularly encouraged to apply. 

Applications should include a CV, a short research statement, and a minimum of two and a maximum of three recommendation letters. For full consideration, all the material should be received by January 20, 2025.

The appointments are expected to be for 2+1 years (extension subject to funding renewal and performance), with a net salary competitive with international standards. All candidates must hold (or soon be completing) a Ph.D. in Physics.
