Postdoctoral Researcher in Extragalactic Stellar Streams
1 month ago
We are seeking highly motivated postdoctoral researchers to join our team at the Niels Bohr Institute, University of Copenhagen, to work on a variety of topics related to extragalactic stellar streams. The successful candidates will have a strong background in computational astrophysics, galactic dynamics, and/or dark matter physics.
The research group led by Dr. Sarah Pearson focuses on understanding the properties and behavior of stellar streams in the context of dark matter. We use a combination of theoretical models, numerical simulations, and observational data to investigate the dynamics of these streams and their implications for our understanding of the universe.
The postdoctoral researchers will have the opportunity to develop their own research projects related to extragalactic streams and will receive support to travel to international conferences and visit collaborators. We encourage co-mentoring of students and teaching opportunities.
The position is open from September 2025 or as soon as possible thereafter. We welcome applications from all qualified candidates regardless of personal background.
Key Responsibilities:
- Conduct research on extragalactic stellar streams using computational astrophysics and galactic dynamics techniques
- Develop and implement new methods for analyzing and modeling stellar streams
- Collaborate with the research group to advance our understanding of dark matter and its role in the universe
- Communicate research results through publications and presentations
Requirements:
- PhD in astronomy, astrophysics, or a related field
- Strong background in computational astrophysics, galactic dynamics, and/or dark matter physics
- Excellent programming skills in languages such as Python, C++, or Fortran
- Experience with numerical simulations and data analysis
How to Apply:
Please submit your application electronically, including your CV, a brief cover letter, and a separate reprint of a particularly relevant paper. We do not request letters of recommendation at this time.
The deadline for applications is November 1, 2024, 23:59 GMT +1.
