hela Sverige Applications are invited for the investigations of the ionosphere of Mars. The work involves working with a multi-instrumental dataset from the MAVEN mission and to conduct numerical and analytical modelling with a special focus on ion chemistry.
Our team performs observations, data analysis, and modeling of space plasma processes (www.space.irfu.se). The team has decades of experience in developing and operating instruments to measure electric fields, plasma temperature, density and density fluctuations for spacecraft missions (e.g. Cluster, MMS, Swarm, Cassini, Rosetta, Solar Orbiter).
The successful candidate will be involved in national and international collaborations and will also be expected to present their results at national and international conferences as well as publish their results in leading journals. Expertise in solar energy deposition- and photochemical modelling will be highly beneficial.
Employment conditions
The position is available at the Uppsala office of IRF, located at the Ångström Laboratory in Uppsala, Sweden, for 2 years. The position is funded by the Swedish National Space Agency (SNSA).
Qualifications
Candidates should have completed a PhD in space plasma physics (or within another field which the empoyer deems relevant to the research subject) or expect to complete within the next months. We will primarily consider candidates with a degree obtained within the last three years. If you have an older degree and want to refer to special circumstances, such as parental leave, this should be clearly stated in your application.
The candidate should not currently be an active researcher at IRF in Uppsala or in the Department of Physics and Astronomy at Uppsala University. Candidates should be able to start the work no later than September 2023.
What we can offer you
Equality, equal conditions and diversity are fundamental principles in our workplace which means that we consider equality aspects in our daily work and in all decision-making forums.
