             POSTDOCTORAL AND PHD POSITIONS IN FIRST STAR
             FORMATION:

We invite applications to fill postdoctoral research positions
and PhD positions in first star formation studies working with
Prof. Ralf Klessen and collaborators at the Center for Astronomy
at Heidelberg University in the context of the STARLIGHT
project, funded by the European Research Council.

In STARLIGHT we investigate the formation of the first and
second generations of stars in the universe using
high-resolution numerical simulations and theoretical models and
we make detailed comparison with observational data from surveys
at low and high redshift. Researchers in the group have easy
access to local and national computing facilities. The
successful candidates should have experience in
(magneto)hydrodynamic simulations techniques, radiative transfer
calculations, or the theoretical description of physical
processes in the early universe. 

The postdoctoral positions are initially for two years with the
possibility of an extension to a total of five years. They come
with a competitive salary and full benefits together with a
generous research and travel budget. Required application
materials include a curriculum vitae, a list of publications, a
summary of previous and current research activities as well as
future research plans, and three letters of reference to be sent
by regular mail or e-mail to

Ralf Klessen
Zentrum für Astronomie der Universität Heidelberg
Institut für Theoretische Astrophysik, Albert-Ueberle-Str. 2,
69120 Heidelberg, Germany
E-Mail: klessen en uni-heidelberg.de

All applications arriving before December 15, 2013 will be
considered. 

Candidates for the PhD positions should apply via the Heidelberg
graduate schools at either the HGSFP
(http://www.fundamental-physics.uni-hd.de/index.php?m=4) or the
IMPRS-HD
(http://www.mpia-hd.mpg.de/imprs-hd/applicationForm/index.html)
web interface and indicate interested in first star formation
studies. The deadline for PhD applications is December 1, 2013.
