Postdoctoral Associate Position in Very High Energy Gamma Ray Astronomy at Iowa State University
The gamma-ray astrophysics group at ISU has an opening for a postdoctoral associate to work primarily on the VERITAS project. It is also expected that the successful candidate become involved in the development of instrumentation for a future gamma-ray observatory such as AGIS (Advanced Gamma-ray Imaging System). Applicants should have a PhD in high energy physics or astrophysics with experience in instrumentation and data analysis.
The VERITAS 4-telescope system has been on-line since early 2007. The person filling this position will work on data reduction, participate in writing observing proposals, and work on the science analysis and interpretation.
The appointment will be initially for 1 year with a possibility for 2 more years of extension. Applications should arrange for a curriculum vitae, 3 letters of recommendation, and a description of future research interests to be sent to
