Post Doc Position at IAP (another one !)

Post by Alain Riazuelo » December 01 2005

Postdoctoral position at IAP (Paris)

The Planck team at the Institut d'Astrophysique de Paris plan to recruit a post-doctoral fellow for a period of at least two years, starting Autumn 2006 (or earlier) in preparation for the scientific exploitation of the forthcoming Planck data.

The postdoc recruited will work on projects relating to departures from gaussianity and/or isotropy in the microwave background; e.g. their generation mechanisms (sources of non-gaussianity in the early universe, weak lensing effects on the CMB, astrophysical foregrounds residuals, systematic effects from the instrument or the data analysis methods), and the design and validation of appropriate statistical estimators.

Expertise in CMB data analysis or theory, as well as good statistical knowledge will be particularly appreciated.

Specific inquiries about the position may be addressed to F.R. Bouchet (bouchet at iap.fr). Applicants should send a CV, statement of research and arrange for three recommandation letters to be sent to

Mme Delphine Charbonneau
Institut d'Astrophysique de Paris
98bis Boulevard Arago
75014 Paris
FRANCE
charbonn at iap.fr

To receive full consideration, applications and recommendation letters should be received no later than December 31st 2005.
