This is one of up to five postdoctoral positions across the Working Group's institutions: UC Berkeley (Benjamin Safdi), Princeton University (Adam Burrows), the University of Washington (Masha Baryakhtar), LAPTh/CNRS in Annecy, France (Francesca Calore), and Wroclaw University of Science and Technology, Poland (Tobias Fischer). Researchers are expected to work at the intersection of theoretical particle physics, theoretical nuclear astrophysics, and astroparticle physics. Research Focus The Simons Working Group on Axions ( is a multi-institutional collaboration supported by the Simons Foundation that aims to develop and implement novel astrophysical probes of the quantum chromodynamics axion and axion-like particles. Areas and methods of particular emphasis are supernova simulations, black hole superradiance, cosmological axion simulations, and, more broadly, theoretical calculations of axion effects in extreme astrophysical and cosmological systems. Researchers will be given broad discretion to work on related projects with Working Group members and researchers at the Working Group institutions. Supported postdocs will be able to travel frequently to the other Working Group institutions and to make extended visits. Employment Details Position will be awarded for up to three years. In addition to a competitive salary, the position includes benefits and funds for travel. Compensation and Benefits Competitive salary Benefits Funds for travel Qualifications PhD in physics, astrophysics, or a related field by the start date Deadline Deadline for applications is November 20, 2026.
