One postdoctoral fellow position in high-energy astroparticle physics is available in the group of Associate Professor Manuel Meyer at the Department of Physics and Chemistry, University of Southern Denmark (SDU) in Odense.
Application deadline: 12 March 2023.
Starting date of the position will be 1 May 2023 or as soon as possible thereafter. The position is for two years with the possibility to extend for one more year.
The newly formed Axion Dark Matter and Astroparticle research group focuses on searches for dark matter in the form of axions and axion-like particles (ALPs) as well as the propagation of high-energy photons over cosmological distances. It is supported by a Starting Grant from the European Research Council. The group is part of CP3-Origins Centre which includes leading scientists from mathematics, particle physics, astrophysics, and cosmology at SDU.
High-energy gamma rays and charged cosmic rays produced in sources beyond our Milky Way could initiate electromagnetic cascades in intergalactic space. The gamma-ray signature of these cascades could reveal the strength of the otherwise poorly constrained intergalactic magnetic fields and constrain the acceleration efficiency of cosmic rays.
The successful candidate will join international research collaborations and search for cascade signatures by analysing data from state-of-the-art gamma-ray observatories such as the Fermi Large Area Telescope and Cherenkov telescopes. The candidate will also have the opportunity to participate in related studies for the upcoming Cherenkov Telescope Array. The candidate is expected to investigate novel ideas to search for intergalactic magnetic fields and possibly develop machine-learning based algorithms for fast simulations of the cascade signal.
Postdoctoral researchers will have the opportunity to attend summer schools, international conferences or other educational and supporting measures. They will also have the opportunity to participate in academic and soft skills training, as well as career planning support.
Specific Requirements:
• PhD in physics or astrophysics or a related discipline
• Strong background in high-energy astroparticle physics
• Creative and systematic work ethic with the ability to propose new lines of research and high level of independence
• Experience in scientific computing, programming, and statistics
• Excellent command of the English language
• Strong initiative and involvement in an international team environment.
Additionally, outstanding candidates will have experience in data analysis of gamma-ray observatories such as imaging Cherenkov Telescopes and/or the Fermi Large Area Telescope with the gammapy or fermipy software packages, will have experience in cascade simulations with the ELMAG or CRPropa code frameworks, and have demonstrated research in the field of extragalactic astroparticle physics.

The Department of Physics, Chemistry and Pharmacy is one of four departments at the Faculty of Science, SDU and is located in Odense. The Department of Physics, Chemistry and Pharmacy is a department focused on basic research. We are happy to move beyond traditional disciplines and work to develop new technologies and sciences across physics, chemistry, pharmacy, mathematics, computer science and biology. The department’s research thus contributes to new knowledge and solutions with applications in the areas of climate, environment, energy, and health. The position is placed in the Physics section.
Application, salary etc.
The successful applicant will be employed in accordance with the agreement between the Ministry of Finance and AC (the Danish Confederation of Professional Associations). Please check links for more information on salary and taxation.
The application must be in English and include the following:
• A letter stating your specific interest, motivation and qualifications for project in question (max two pages).
• A curriculum vitae including information on previous employment.
• A full list of publications stating the scientific publications on which the applicant wishes to rely.
• Copy of PhD degree, including transcript of notes/grades.
Shortlisting may be used in the assessment process.
Incomplete applications and applications received after the deadline will neither be considered nor evaluated.
To qualify you must have passed a PhD or equivalent. Applications will be assessed by an expert assessor/committee. Applicants will be informed of their assessment by the university.
The University wishes our staff to reflect the diversity of society and thus welcomes applications from all qualified candidates regardless of personal background.
Applications must be submitted electronically using the link "Apply online". Attached files must be in Adobe PDF or Word format. Each box can only contain a single file of max. 10 Mb. We strongly recommend that you read How to apply before you apply.
