Postdoctoral Position in Astrophysics

  FACULTY OF SCIENCE, INSTITUTE FOR ASTRONOMY AND ASTROPHYSICS

  Bewerbungsfrist: 10.06.2024

  The High-Energy Astrophysics (HEA) group of the Institute for Astronomy
and Astrophysics at the University of Tübingen (IAAT) invites applications
for

  Two Positions for Doctoral Studies (m/f/d, E13 TV-L, 66%)

  1. "Multiwavelength modelling of the gamma-ray binary PSR B1259-63"

  This project is conducted in the context of the gamma-ray binaries study
program performed at the HEA group at IAAT. Within this project, we analyze
observational high-energy data which will be taken during the 2024
periastron passage of PSR B1259-63. This system belongs to the rare class
of gamma-ray binaries. Such systems are capable of accelerating particles
up to extremely high, i.e. TeV, energies. Data analysis of modern X-ray,
high-energy gamma-ray, and TeV gamma-ray observatories (including
Swift/XRT, INTEGRAL, Fermi/LAT and H.E.S.S.) will be performed. The project
also comprises multiwavelength studies of this peculiar object across the
entire electromagnetic spectrum, as well as interpretation of the broadband
spectrum using theoretical modelling. The successful candidate is expected
to participate in the development of the model describing the features of
PSR B1259-63. Participation to other projects is also possible.

  2. “Studies of Particle Acceleration in Supernova Remnants exploiting
the eROSITA Survey”

  This project is conducted in the context of studies of Galactic stellar
endpoints in the German eROSITA consortium, which IAAT is a member of. The
project is conducted in the context of the study program to investigate the
role of supernova remnants in the acceleration of Galactic cosmic rays,
that is performed at the HEA group at IAAT. Within this project, eROSITA
X-ray data will be exploited to search for signatures of particle
acceleration in an appropriate sample of Galactic supernova remnants. The
data will be augmented with multiwavelength data across the electromagnetic
spectrum, up to TeV energies. Results will be confronted with model
expectations, that the successful candidate is expected to explore in the
context of this project. Based on the results, planning and execution of
follow-up observations of selected objects with high-energy observatories
is foreseen.

  Job details and application procedure

  The positions are for 3 years. Expected starting date is September 1st,
2024; earlier or later starting dates can be negotiated. Remuneration is
based upon the German federal public service pay grade (66% of TV-L E13,
according to funding conditions). Applicants are required to have a master
or equivalent university degree in astrophysics or physics. The University
of Tübingen is committed to equal opportunity and diversity. We invite
qualified women to apply. Applications from equally qualified candidates
with disabilities will be given preference.

  Applications, including a motivation letter, a full curriculum vitae
(including a list of publications if applicable), and the names and email
addresses of two references, should be sent, as soon as possible and not
later than June 10th, 2024, via e-mail to
