The Institute of Theoretical Physics at Charles University invites application for 1-2 postdoctoral positions in the area of computational astrophysics in the research group of Dr. Ondrej Pejcha. The successful candidates will lead development of new computational abilities to understand multi-dimensional evolution of catastrophic interactions of binary stars (mergers, common envelope, compact objects), and the associated radiation signatures (transients). The work will be performed within the project Cat-In-hAT funded by the ERC Starting Grant to Ondrej Pejcha.
Duration: initially for one year, renewable for up to three years, based on performance.
Requirements:
- Applicants must have a PhD in Astronomy, Computational Physics, or a related field by the start date of the appointment.
- The position includes internationally competitive salary and research budget, full medical and dental benefits, and contributions to social security.
Applications:
Application to be submitted via email to [email protected] including:
- CV
- List of publications
- Statement on past research and future interests
- Names and addresses of 3 references
