PhD opportunity at the University of Southampton in astrophysics and observational astronomy, focused on changing-look active galactic nuclei (AGN) and the evolution of supermassive black holes . The project asks why some black holes appear to change dramatically over just months, challenging current ideas about accretion and black-hole growth. The successful candidate will collate a uniform sample of changing-look AGN using major surveys such as SPHEREx, WISE, Euclid, and eROSITA , then measure...

Finnish Centre for Astronomy with ESO (FINCA) at the University of Turku is inviting applications for a three-year postdoctoral researcher / senior researcher fixed-term position in astronomy, astrophysics, physics , and multi-messenger astronomy . The project is part of the ERC-funded BlackHolistic initiative, which aims to create colour movies of black holes and study their astrophysics across scales. The work focuses on the physics of relativistic jets launched from accreting supermassive bla...
