Institute of Theoretical Physics
Faculty of Mathematics and Physics, Charles University
V Holesovickach 2
180 00 Praha 8
Czech Republic
Applications are invited for a postdoctoral position at the Institute of Theoretical Physics at Charles University in Prague, Czech Republic, to join the research group established through Primus award to Dr. Ondrej Pejcha. We seek candidates in areas connected with transients (supernovae and similar), variable stars, and time-domain astronomy in general (including solar system astronomy). In particular, candidates interested in working with the All-Sky Automated Survey for Supernovae (ASAS-SN) are encouraged to apply.
Applicants must have a PhD in astronomy or a related field by the start date of the appointment. Experience in observational astronomy is preferred, but this position would also be appropriate for a theorist. The appointment will begin in Fall 2017, but the starting date is negotiable. Appointment is initially for one year and extendable for up to three years. The position includes competitive research budget and opportunity for independent research.
Interested applicants are encouraged to contact Dr. Ondrej Pejcha (http://www.astro.princeton.edu/~pejcha/) for details of the project.
