Postdoctoral Fellows in Astrophysics and Galaxy Formation Lund University in Sweden

PhD opportunity in Astronomy and Astrophysics at Lund University, Sweden. The Planet Formation Group in the Department of Physics (Division of Astrophysics) is recruiting a doctoral student to work on theoretical astrophysics with a focus on planet formation , galaxy formation , and the origin of interstellar planetesimals / interstellar comets . The project studies how planets form at different times and in different regions of the Milky Way, and how planetesimals can be ejected from planetary ...

Postdoctoral position in astrophysics at Laboratoire de Physique de l'École Normale Supérieure (LPENS) , CNRS, in France . The project is part of the ANR-funded VIEWS project and focuses on the interplay between black-hole feeding and AGN feedback in massive galaxies, using James Webb Space Telescope observations of Brightest Cluster Galaxies. The research combines JWST spectroscopy , emission-line modeling, and 3D MHD simulations to study photoionized, photodissociated, and shocked gas, circum-...

Postdoctoral Fellowships and postdoctoral positions are available at the Cosmic Dawn Center (DAWN) at the University of Copenhagen / Niels Bohr Institute, Denmark, with links to DTU-Space and international collaborators. The call covers early-Universe research themes including first stars, high-redshift galaxy evolution, reionization and the evolution of the IGM, high-redshift transients and supernovae, dust and ISM in the early Universe, massive galaxy evolution, and dark matter. A specific DFF...

The University of Arizona Department of Astronomy and Steward Observatory is inviting applications for Postdoctoral Research Associate, JASPER Scholar positions in early galaxies, galaxy formation, reionization, quasars, supermassive black holes, gravitational lensing, and intergalactic medium . These positions are part of the JWST/Roman Arizona-Steward Postdocs in Early Galaxies and Reionization (JASPER) program. Scholars will collaborate with one or more JWST/Roman science teams and participat...

Multiple PhD positions are open in the Star Formation and Galaxy Evolution Group at the Max Planck Institute for Radio Astronomy (MPIfR) and the wider University of Bonn environment. The projects are part of the 2026 application call , with project start in 2027 . The research theme focuses on star formation , galaxy evolution , and the physics of massive stars forming in dense clumps within giant molecular clouds. This is a strong fit for students interested in astronomy and physics , especiall...
