Postdoctoral Researcher (F/M) in Solar System Physics and Astrophysics Space Research Centre of the Polish Academy of Sciences in Poland

Nicolaus Copernicus Astronomical Center (CAMK PAN) in Warsaw, Poland is advertising a postdoctoral position in numerical astrophysics within the OPUS 30 project “The puzzle of the spins of stellar-mass black holes” (2025/59/B/ST9/01180), funded by the Polish National Science Centre. The project focuses on accretion flows onto spinning black holes and uses numerical simulations in collaboration with Prof. Andrzej Zdziarski and Dr. Hab. Krzysztof Nalewajko. This is a full-time temporary postdoctor...

Canadian SKA Scientist Program — postdoctoral positions in astronomy and astrophysics at Canadian universities. The Herzberg Astronomy and Astrophysics Research Centre, National Research Council of Canada, is funding up to two fixed-term positions in 2026 for early-career researchers to conduct independent research and contribute directly to SKA science . The program supports work on the Square Kilometre Array and its pathfinders, with a strong emphasis on innovative instrumentation, technology,...

PhD opportunity in plasma astrophysics at the University of Otago , New Zealand, focused on Plasma Turbulence in the Sun’s Corona and Accretion Disks . The project explores the behaviour of magnetised plasma in extreme astrophysical environments, with possible directions including heating of the solar corona by waves, magnetic fields and turbulence in accretion disks around black holes, large-scale computational simulations, magnetised plasma physics, and plasma processes in astrophysical disks,...

Two postdoctoral positions are open at the Max Planck Institute for Solar System Research in Göttingen, Germany on SO/PHI data reduction and exploitation . The positions are based in the solar department, which works on major solar space missions including Solar Orbiter , Solar-C , and MUSE . The institute is the PI institute for the Polarimetric and Helioseismic Imager (SO/PHI) and offers opportunities in solar instrumentation, observations, calibration, data analysis, theory, and numerical mod...

Fully funded Master’s and PhD positions are currently open at National Yang Ming Chiao Tung University (NYCU), Taiwan . The post highlights research interests in astrophysics and plasma physics , with related themes including cosmic rays , molecular clouds , and outflows . This is a strong fit for students with a background in physics and a research interest in space/astrophysical phenomena, plasma processes, and theoretical or observational physics topics. The announcement states that the posit...
