hela Sverige Work with data from the Rosetta Ion Composition Analyzer
The Solar System Physics and Space Technology research programme at the Swedish Institute of Space Physics in Kiruna invites applications for a Postdoctoral position in Space Physics, related to the ESA Rosetta mission to comet 67P Churyumov-Gerasimenko. Rosetta is the first mission to follow a comet for an extended time, from low activity far from the sun to high activity around perihelion. The Rosetta mission is still active and is now entering an intense end phase that will have a grand finale when the orbiter spirals down towards the surface of the nucleus in September 2016.
Applications are invited for a postdoctoral position for studies of the cometary plasma environment and its interaction with the solar wind using ion data. The work mainly concerns data from the Ion Composition Analyzer (ICA) on board Rosetta and the other instruments that form the Rosetta Plasma Consortium (RPC)
Previous experience of working with plasma and/or particle data from space missions is required. Relevant experience with planetary ? solar wind interaction studies is a merit.
Candidates should have completed a PhD during 2013 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 August 2016 can also apply. The candidate should not currently be an active researcher at IRF.
The position, placed in Kiruna, is funded by the Swedish Research Council and is for 2 years.
