The theoretical nuclear and particle physics group at North Carolina State University investigates a broad range of topics relating to the fundamental interactions of matter. These include the study of quantum chromodynamics, the quark structure of mesons
and baryons, hadronic interactions, hadronic matter under extreme conditions, nuclear structure, photonuclear reactions, heavy ion collisions, cold atomic systems, superfluidity, viscous hydrodynamics, electroweak symmetry breaking, neutrino mixing, neutrino interactions with nucleons and nuclei, stellar evolution, supernovae, nucleosynthesis, the early universe, tests of the standard model, light-front quantization, effective field theory, and non-perturbative lattice methods. Our group has ties with the nearby Thomas Jefferson National Accelerator (JLAB), with funding opportunities from the Southeastern Universities Research Association (SURA) available for qualified graduate students. The members of our group are involved in collaborations with the astrophysics, atomic, and condensed matter groups at NC State, as well as hadronic theorists and experimentalists in the Triangle area and beyond. Together with Duke and UNC Chapel Hill, our group co-hosts the weekly Triangle Universities Nuclear Theory
TNT
seminar series. We also co-host the NC State physics theory seminar (Theory Talks). Our faculty, staff, and student offices are located in Riddick Hall. Faculty Opening in Theoretical Nuclear and Particle Physics for Fall 2013 Postdoctoral Opening for Fall 2013
