PhD in Supernovae and Dark Energy with the Rubin Observatory University of Southampton in United Kingdom

PhD opportunity at the University of Southampton in astronomy / astrophysics / physics focused on what regulates star formation in distant galaxies . The project investigates how galactic winds driven by stars and supermassive black holes affect the gas that fuels star formation around 10 billion years ago . You will work with KMOS spectroscopy from ESO’s Very Large Telescope and ALMA observations of cold molecular gas, combining existing datasets with archival data and new observations. The res...

Lancaster University’s School of Physics and Astronomy is recruiting a Postdoctoral Research Associate in Supernova Cosmology (reference 1077-26) in Lancaster, United Kingdom . The project is with Dr Mathew Smith and is supported by an STFC-funded research programme. The successful candidate will work on building an independent, homogeneous low-redshift sample of SNeIa from the Zwicky Transient Facility (ZTF) , and combine it with higher-redshift measurements from surveys such as the Dark Energy...

Queen’s University Belfast is advertising a Postdoctoral Research Associate position within the Astrophysics Research Centre as part of the five-year STFC Large Award TRANSCEND . The project uses Vera Rubin/LSST transient data and the 4MOST Time-Domain Extragalactic Survey (TiDES) to study major questions in modern astrophysics , including how stars explode, how supermassive black holes grow, and the nature of dark energy. The QUB post focuses on transient physical properties and the black hole ...

PhD opportunity in Astronomy/Astrophysics at the University of Southampton on Hunting for black holes in the galaxy . This project, supervised by Professor Poshak Gandhi , focuses on the birth, growth, evolution, and demographics of black holes in the Milky Way and beyond. You will analyse data from major survey facilities including Gaia , the Vera Rubin Observatory (LSST) , eROSITA/SRG , and VISTA/4MOST , with opportunities to work at the interface of observational and theoretical astrophysics....

Fully funded PhD opportunity at Imperial College London in the UK, in collaboration with the University of Reading and the University of Southampton . The project is titled Probabilistic AI for Weather Extremes and focuses on developing probabilistic AI methods to improve weather foundation models and predict rare and extreme weather events. Research themes include artificial intelligence , machine learning , statistical modelling , probabilistic methods , climate science , weather forecasting ,...
