Ihr Aufgabenbereich
- Conduct own research based on data analysis and theoretical studies.
- Actively participate in the science task for the missions relevant to the IWF contributed instruments.
- Regular publications in peer-reviewed journals and presentations at international conferences.
|
Your Tasks
- Familiarise yourself with the scientific objectives of the L4 mission and related science and sensor know-how at the IWF. This requires focused communication with the IWF science and hardware experts from four research groups (Solar System Planetary Physics, Space Plasma Physics, Onboard Computing and Space Magnetometers).
- Conduct research based on literature studies, data analysis and/or theoretical studies to prepare the IWF for the ESA L4 mission.
- Development of initial sensor performance requirements needed to achieve the science objectives for both, the orbiter and the lander.
- Support acquisition of third-party postdoc funding from e.g., the Austrian Science Fund to continue and/or finalize this study. Aspirations for submitting an ERC grant will be very welcome.

Your Tasks
- The successful candidate will analyse data taken with the NUCLEUS experiment during the commissioning phase and physics runs.
- A main aspect of the work will be the improvement of NUCLEUS event reconstruction and event selection using Artificial Intelligence (AI) methods, with application in the subsequent analysis.
- In addition, the application of the AI methods for detector setup, operation, and optimization for NUCLEUS data taking could be performed.
- Contributions to the commissioning and operation of the NUCLEUS experiment at its experimental site in Chooz, France are expected.

Your personal sphere of influence:
- You are involved in a well-funded research project with the research topics in quantum foundations and quantum information theory.
- You will present your research plan to the faculty and complete a dissertation agreement within 12-18 months. This will be reviewed and adapted on an annual basis.
- You will work on your dissertation and towards its completion in time. We expect a large degree of independence paired with a high level of social awareness as the goal will only be achieved in a team.
- You will contribute to teaching (lab courses, exercise classes) within the provisions of the collective bargaining agreement.
- You will fill some administrative tasks, contributing to the success and self-organization of the group for research, teaching and administration.
- You will continuously stay informed about the state of the art in your field.
- You contribute to outreach by publications, conference presentations and public activities.

Your personal sphere of influence:
We are looking for a highly motivated and creative PhD student to explore fundamental questions of planetary habitability related to Snowball Earth or Earth-like exoplanets. Possible topics could be the mechanisms that allow or inhibit water belt states as alternative scenarios for Snowball Earth, the impact of clouds, aerosols and hazes on the climate and habitability of Earth-like exoplanets, or the development of a new radiation scheme for climate model simulations with high atmospheric carbon dioxide. Whatever the topic, you will develop and run climate model simulations and combine the modeling work with theory and mechanistic understanding. You will have the opportunity to run global simulations with km resolution on some of the fastest supercomputers available for climate science. You will also benefit from our long-term collaborations on Snowball Earth and exoplanets with the Department of Astrophysics of the University of Vienna, the University of Chicago, Columbia University, and Peking University.
