| PhD position in Gamma Ray Astrophysics | Closing date: 2020-10-27
Contact: Josep Maria Paredes |
| The High Energy Astrophysics group at Universitat de Barcelona offers a PhD grant to join the group. The PhD student would gather multi-wavelength observations of galactic and/or transient sources and work on the interpretation and modelling of the data. He or she would become a member of the MAGIC Collaboration (and possibly of the CTA Consortium) and conduct observation shifts at the Canary Island of La Palma. | | ▸ more | Our grup has experience in a multidisciplinary approach to high-energy processes in galactic and extragalactic sources with astrophysical outflows. The observational studies are conducted using forefront ground-based and satellite-born facilities such as VLA, EVN, ESO telescopes and GTC, Chandra and XMM, Agile and Fermi or MAGIC. The theoretical studies are carried out through numerical and semi-analytical modeling (radiation processes, magnetohydrodynamics).
We offer a pre-doctoral contract of up to 4 years in total funded by the Spanish Ministry of Science and Innovation through the ?Programa Estatal de Promoción del Talento y su Empleabilidad en I+D+I? (FPI). This position is associated to the R+D project PID2019-105510GB-C31.
Interested people should apply from 13 to 27 of October through the URL https://www.ciencia.gob.es/portal/site/MICINN/menuitem.dbc68b34d11ccbd5d52ffeb801432ea0/?vgnextoid=490233572bed4710VgnVCM1000001d04140aRCRD of the Ministerio de Ciencia e Innovación.
Suitable candidates are those who are enrolled or admitted to a doctoral program for the 2020/2021 academic year at the time of submission of the application or that are in a position to be on the date the contract is formalized.
ICCUB offers and promotes a diverse and inclusive environment (for additional information please see the Diversity, equity and inclusion Commission) and strongly encourages women and underrepresented minorities in physical sciences to apply.
