The Center for Theoretical and Computational Physics pursues a broad program of theoretical research in all areas of quantum chromodynamics (QCD) and hadron physics, promoting and supporting the physics studied at Jefferson Lab and related facilities around the world.

Felix Ringer, joint appointment with Jefferson Lab and Old Dominion University, has been awarded a DOE Early Career Award for 2023. This project will develop a multi-pronged approach by leveraging perturbative QCD calculations of observables sensitive to multi-parton dynamics, quantum simulations of real-time dependent correlation functions relevant to understand the complex dynamics of hadronization, and A.I. / machine learning techniques that will provide new insights into the microscopic picture of hadronization by identifying patterns in collider data.

Positions in the Jefferson Lab Theory Center involve research in theoretical hadronic and nuclear physics that motivates and supports Jefferson Lab experiments at 12 GeV and beyond.
