Overview
Imperial College London - South Kensington Campus
Applications are invited for a 2.5 year Research Associate position within the Astrophysics Group, to start on 1st September 2010 or as soon as possible thereafter. The successful applicant will work with Dr. Subhanjoy Mohanty on low-mass stars and brown dwarfs: in particular, on their formation mechanisms and accretion disk properties; their evolution; and their interior and atmospheric characteristics. The work will encompass both observational and theoretical perspectives. The precise subset of topics, and focus on observational or theoretical aspects, may be tailored to the inclinations and expertise of the successful applicant.
The postholder will be expected to contribute to the Department’s teaching activities up to approximately half a day per week during the academic year, as appropriate.
Value of this position
Salary £30,520 to £33,080 per annum
Fixed term: 2.5 years commencing 1 September 2010
Eligible Candidates
A PhD or an equivalent level of professional qualifications and experience in astrophysics is essential. A strong background in either low-mass stars and brown dwarfs or in stellar accretion disk physics is also essential. Applicants may have either theoretical or observational backgrounds; both are equally welcome. A good understanding of radiative transfer and/or magneto-hydrodynamics is desirable. Experience with coding (e.g., either astronomical data processing or astrophysical simulations) is also desirable.
Informal inquiries may be directed to Dr. Subhanjoy Mohanty at: s.mohanty@imperial.ac.uk.
Our preferred method of application is online via our website:http://www.imperial.ac.uk/employment (Please select “Job Search”, then enter the job title or vacancy reference number NS2010062NT into “Keywords”).
