Post-doctoral position in pulsar astrophysics
The pulsar group at the Nicolaus Copernicus Astronomical Center (NCAC)
invites applications for
a post-doctoral position in pulsar astrophysics.
This is a 2-year appointment open to researchers with a PhD degree in astronomy, physics or
related discipline. The successful candidate will be working on interpretation and modelling
of radiation properties of pulsars. Our interests span a large range of frequency spectrum
(radio, optical, X, and high-energy gamma-rays) as well as a broad range of pulsar phenomena:
radio pulse profiles, radio and optical polarisation, single pulse phenomena (drifting, mode-changing,
nulling), X-ray, and gamma-ray profiles and spectra. Experience in numerical/analytical modelling
of radiative processes and high-level data analysis is valued.
Applications should be sent to
jinx@ncac.torun.pl before the deadline of December 15, 2014.
The applications should include cover letter, CV, synopsis of past research activities and present
research interests (preferably not longer than 2 pages), as well as two letters of reference.
The position is scheduled to open on 1st April 2015.
For enquiries please contact: Dr Jaroslaw Dyks.
