| ERC Postdoctoral Fellowship in Black Hole and Multiphase Astrophysics | Closing date: 2026-05-28
Contact: Massimo Gaspari |
| The ERC Consolidator Grant BlackHoleWeather is a cutting-edge initiative aimed at understanding how the feeding and feedback of supermassive black holes shape galaxies, groups, and clusters, linking macro- and micro-scales (Gaspari+20, Nat. Astron.). The successful candidate may contribute on the numerical side, by developing multiscale MHD simulations, or on the observational side, through multi-wavelength data analysis. Applications are welcome from observational and numerical backgrounds, with strong interest in candidates able to connect both approaches. | | ▸ more | Numerical track: running and analyzing high-resolution 3D multiscale MHD simulations on GPUs (e.g., AMR codes such as AthenaPK); implementing advanced physics (e.g., anisotropic conduction/viscosity, chemical networks, star formation, plasma physics, cosmic rays, general relativity); producing synthetic observables (X-ray, optical/IR, radio) and comparing them quantitatively with observations.
Observational track: reducing and analyzing multi-wavelength datasets (e.g., JWST/HST, Chandra/XMM/XRISM, ALMA/MeerKAT/LOFAR, MUSE); extracting physical, thermodynamic, and kinematic properties of multiphase gas and outflows; performing quantitative comparisons with the MHD simulations.
Cross-cutting activities: publishing first-author scientific papers, presenting results at international conferences, collaborating with global partners, playing a leading role within the BlackHoleWeather excellence team, mentoring students, developing independent ideas, and contributing to ERC deliverables such as datasets, pipelines, simulations, and synthetic products.
