hela Sverige Applications are invited for positions in the field of space plasma physics. The studies are based on data analysis from spacecraft observations in plasma environments of comet 67P and of the Earth's bow shock.
The scientific topics of the respective positions are the following:
1) Investigation of complex dynamics of a cometary ionosphere. The work involves analysis of Rosetta data.
2) Particle energization by collisionless shocks at electron scales. The work involves analysis of data from Magnetospheric Multiscale (MMS) mission.
Experience in the analysis of space plasma data is expected, and experience in relevant theoretical modelling is an advantage.
Our team performs observations, data analysis and modelling 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. Rosetta, MMS, Cluster, Solar Orbiter, Swarm, Cassini).
The position is available at the Uppsala office of IRF, located at the Ångström Laboratory in Uppsala, Sweden, for 2 years. The positions are funded by grants from the Swedish National Space Agency.
The postdoc candidates should have completed a PhD during 2017 or later. However, if the candidate has an older degree and wants to refer to special circumstances, such as parental leave, this should be clearly stated. Candidates planning to obtain their PhD degree no later than September 2020 can also apply. Guest scientist candidates should have a PhD degree. 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 during autumn 2020.
Applications should include a CV, a short letter stating research interests and relevant experience, copies of undergraduate and PhD degree certificates (or a letter from the supervisor stating when the PhD degree is expected), description and proof of previous postdoctoral positions and/or similar relevant research work (if available), names and contact information for two professional references and reprints of not more than 4 selected publications.
Closing date for applications is 31 May 2020.
