Theoretical High Energy Particle Physics Group

The Cambridge HEP theory group is a large research group, primarily in DAMTP. We have some members in common with the Relativity and Gravitation group and with the Cavendish HEP Theory Group, reflecting strong research links. Prof. Maria Ubiali is head of the group and Ms Amanda Stagg, as HEP Administrator, is the first point of contact.

Research Activities

• Quantum Field Theory
• Quantum Gravity
• Particle Phenomenology
• Lattice Field Theory
• Solitons

Job Vacancies

Please check back later in year for postdoc vacancies: we are expecting to advertise some positions, but there is a delay in the government letting us know about grant funding.

Ph.D. Applications

Please refer to the DAMTP PhD Opportunities webpage.

We are hosting BUSSTEPP 2026: September 7-18

BUSSTEPP is a Summer school for first year UK PhD students in theoretical high energy physics.
