Are you exceptionally interested in the potential of gravitational wave astronomy for fundamental physics? We are seeking a postdoctoral research associate to lead an interdisciplinary research on gravitational wave probes of particle dark matter. The successful candidate will be embedded in the GRAPPA center of excellence in gravitation and astroparticle physics.
What are you going to do?
You are expected to perform high-level research in the rapid developing field of precision gravitational wave astronomy, and to assess the implications for the identification of the fundamental nature of dark matter particle. You are expected to publish your results in peer-reviewed international journals. Teaching and the supervision of Bachelor and Master students will not be part of your duties, but you will have the opportunity to interact with a vibrant community of young researchers, and to give guest lectures for students at the MSc level if you wish to do so.
Requirements
You should have:
- PhD, or expect to obtain it before October 1st, 2024;
- A strong publication record;
- Professional command of English;
- Demonstrated excellent research skills.
