Applications are invited for diploma and PhD positions
in the Infrared Interferometry Group of the Max-Planck
Institute for Radio Astronomy in Bonn
(see
http://www.mpifr-bonn.mpg.de/div/ir-interferometry).
Preference will be given to applicants with experience in one
of the following areas:
young stellar objects, active galactic
nuclei, radiative transfer modeling, or infrared interferometry.
Successful applicants will be expected to participate in
interferometric observations and their interpretations,
or in instrumentation projects (in particular, science
software development for the VLTI-MATISSE instrument).
The positions offer excellent opportunities for high-resolution
studies using the VLT Interferometer. Since our group is a member of the
LBT LINC-NIRVANA consortium, we own LBT Guaranteed Observing Time.
The appointment is initially for two years and is renewable
for up to six years. Applicants should submit a curriculum
vitae, list of publications, and brief description of research
interests, and arrange for one letter of recommendation to be
emailed to weigelt@mpifr.de.
The Max-Planck Society is an equal-opportunity employer and aims to employ more disabled
people. Applications from disabled persons are, therefore,
particularly welcome.
