Overview
The « Laboratoire d'Astrophysique de Bordeaux » (LAB) carries out observational, interpretative and theoretical research in various fields of astrophysics including the interstellar medium, planet and star formation, and stellar populations. The LAB has also been involved in the technical development and commissioning of several major sub-systems for the Herschel satellite and ground-based millimeter interferometer ALMA, along with preparation of the astrometric space mission Gaia. In this context, applications are invited for a postdoctoral fellow to work on one of the following research topics :
T1: Measuring magnetic fields in proto-planetary discs: a high resolution search for polarized emission in the millimeter domain.
T2: Complex molecules in Orion KL. A high resolution interferometric study.
T3: Herschel M33 Extended Survey. A study of molecular cloud and star formation in M33.
T4: Astrometry and spectroscopy of open clusters and young associations for probing the galactic disc in the perspective of Gaia.
Scientific details on each of these topics are available here.
Eligible candidates
To be considered, applicants must have a Ph. D. in astrophysics and substantial background in the relevant field. The initial appointment will be available from September 1, 2010, and will be for one year, with the possibility of extending for a second year (subject to satisfactory performance). The gross salary will be 31200 Euros per year (net salary : 25800 Euros).
How to apply
Applicants should submit a brief summary of past scientific research, curriculum vitae, bibliography and a cover letter to charlot@obs.u-bordeaux1.fr before June 1, 2010. They should indicate which topic (T1 to T4) is concerned, and have two reference letters sent to the above address by the same deadline.
