The observational component involves working with new and archival imaging data to derive astrometric and photometric measurements, identify fast-moving and potentially active objects, and support their rapid characterization. The candidate will contribute to developing analysis tools and selecting targets for follow-up observations. The numerical component focuses on modeling the dynamical and thermal evolution of asteroids. This includes applying and extending existing models, investigating objects with limited observational constraints, and developing improved methods to estimate physical properties and their uncertainties. The exact PhD program will be tailored to the candidate's background and interests, with flexibility in the balance between observational and modeling components, and carried out under the supervision of Dr. Bojan Novakovic. The position is based in Teruel, Spain, and includes salary, and standard employment benefits in accordance with Spanish regulations, with flexible working hours. Application Deadline: 15 May 2026 (14:00 CEST) Full further information and application instructions: https://www.cefca.es/cefca_en/reference_0144 Inquiries: Bojan Novakovic, email: bnovakovic @ cefca.es PhD Position Offer 2169 submitted on Fri Apr 17 10:31:12 CEST 2026
