Bartol Research Institute, Department of Physics and Astronomy, University of Delaware, Newark, DE 19716 USA

I am looking for a post-doc (or "research scientist") to work with me on developing models of instabilities and mass loss for massive stars near and above the Eddington limit, and/or to test such models against observations of LBV stars. The position is supported by a combination of NSF and NASA grants, and could last for up to 3 years.

A more complete description is given in the AAS job listing #22275, available via the AAS web page at aas.org.

Further information is also available via the cited weblink.

Inquiries and even electronic applications (names of 3 references, PDFs of vita and research statement, no later than Jan. 31, 2006) can be sent by email to the reply address given below.
