Rabbi Jack + Los Alamos

The Physics Rabbi of Los Alamos

Our Santa Fe tour in June 2025 included a special meeting with PhD physicist and rabbi Jack Shlachter, during which he gave a talk entitled, “Jews in Theory: Jews at Los Alamos, New Mexico, During the Manhattan Project.” Rabbi Shlachter has spent the bulk of his scientific career at Los Alamos, where he also provided rabbinic support at the Los Alamos Jewish Center. Known as “Rabbi Jack,” he shares insights and inspiration through his website Physics Rabbi. As Rabbi Jack likes to say, he is proof that science and religion can be paired.
