Postdocs in cosmology at Nottingham

Posted: December 21 2016
by Anne Green
The University of Nottingham invites applications for three Research Associate/Fellows within the Particle Theory group at the School of Physics & Astronomy and the Quantum Gravity group in the School of Mathematical Sciences.

One of the positions is funded by an STFC consolidated grant. The person appointed will be expected to work with members from either of the two groups on aspects of late universe cosmology which can include; dark matter, dark energy, modified gravity, approaches to solving the cosmological constant problem, strong gravity and black holes.

The other two positions are to work with Dr Clare Burrage, and form part of the research project “New Searches for Dark Energy†funded by the Leverhulme Trust. An important aspect of these positions will be proposing and developing new ways to test theories of dark energy and modified gravity against observations from cosmological to subatomic scales. The post holders will also be encouraged to interact with the other members of the two groups.

Closing date: Wednesday, 1st February 2017
