Kongens Lyngby, Lyngby-Tårbæk Kommune, Denmark Danmarks Tekniske Universitet (DTU) Full time

Join DTU Space, a leading research institution, as an Astronomer and Research Scientist to explore the fascinating world of stellar dynamics. The ERC-funded MAGNIFY project offers an exceptional opportunity to contribute to groundbreaking research on magnetic fields' impact on stellar structures and pulsations.

This exciting role involves creating and coordinating a comprehensive grid of stellar and pulsation models for A and F stars, analyzing how different model parameters affect pulsation characteristics, and integrating findings into a broader understanding of stellar structures. You will also use asteroseismology to study near-core and surface magnetic fields, publish your findings in scientific journals, and present at research seminars and conferences.

Responsibilities:
  • Create a detailed analysis of stellar models to understand their behavior under various conditions.
  • Develop and implement advanced algorithms to simulate the effects of magnetic fields on stellar structures.
  • Analyze and interpret data from Kepler and TESS satellites, Gaia, and ground-based spectroscopic and spectropolarimetric observations to gain insights into stellar dynamics.
  • Publish high-quality research papers and present findings at international conferences.
  • Mentor and support students and PhD students engaged in related research activities.
Qualifications:
  • PhD degree in astronomy or a related field.
  • Extensive experience in stellar modeling, magneto-asteroseismology, and data analysis.
  • Strong analytical skills, ability to work independently, and excellent communication and mentoring skills.
  • A commitment to diversity and inclusion in the workplace.

We offer a rewarding and challenging job in a dynamic research environment, with opportunities for professional growth and development. As a valued member of our team, you will have access to state-of-the-art facilities and resources, including cutting-edge computing infrastructure and collaboration with renowned researchers in the field.

The salary is around 67,000 USD per year, commensurate with qualifications and experience. This is a full-time position offered for an initial period of 2 years, expected to start early 2025.
