Academic
  • Faculty Openings
     

    Applications are invited from Indian citizens for faculty positions at the Inter-University Centre for Astronomy and Astrophysics (IUCAA), Pune, India. IUCAA is a premier autonomous research institution set up by the University Grants Commission to promote astronomy and astrophysics in Indian colleges and universities. This is accomplished through an active associateship program and by conducting schools and workshops across the country. IUCAA is also actively engaged in science popularization.

    Current research activities at IUCAA span a wide range including Classical and Quantum Gravity, Cosmology, Formation and Evolution of Galaxies, Active Galactic Nuclei, High Energy Astrophysics, Diffuse Matter in Space, Cosmic Magnetic Fields, Solar Physics, Astronomy at X-ray/UV/Optical/Radio wavelengths, Gravitational Wave Physics and Instrumentation. IUCAA is also seeking to build activities in other emerging areas including extrasolar planets.

    IUCAA is actively involved in several leading national and international science projects including the Thirty Meter Telescope, the Southern African Large Telescope, India's space based multi-wavelength observatory AstroSat, the Aditya-L1 Solar mission and several others. As a key partner of the LIGO-India consortium, IUCAA has a leading role in the setting up and running of the Gravitational Wave detector in India.

    Facilities run by IUCAA include a 2-m optical/near-IR telescope at its Girawali Observatory, a sophisticated Instrumentation Laboratory for development of astronomical instrumentation, a Radio Physics Laboratory for training students and a High Performance Computing centre with a current installed capacity of about 150 Teraflops with over a Petabyte of storage.

    Applicants for a faculty position should possess a Ph.D. in Physics (or Astronomy/Astrophysics) and three or more years of post-doctoral research experience.

    Appointments will normally be made at the level of Scientist - E (Assistant Professor), but this may be relaxed for exceptionally qualified applicants.

    In order to apply kindly send: (a) your CV, (b) List of Publications including your 5 best papers, (c) a summary of your current research activities and future plans, (d) In a separate file, names of at least six experts familiar with your work.

  • Post-doctoral Fellowships
    • Post-Doctoral Fellow (WALOP Project)

      General Statement and Description: Applications are invited for a postdoctoral position at the Inter-University Centre for Astronomy and Astrophysics (IUCAA) to work on the Wide Area Linear Optical Polarimeter (WALOP) project. Two bespoke WALOP instruments are being built to carry out an optical linear polarimetric survey (PASIPHAE: Polar-Areas Stellar Imaging in Polarization High-Accuracy Experiment) simultaneously from a northern (Skinakas, Greece) and a southern (Sutherland, South Africa) site. The high sample density (>100 stars per sq. degree), sensitivity (R< 16.5), low polarization errors (<0.1%) and large area coverage (~1000sq. degrees) of PASIPHAE measurements, augmented by stellar distance data from GAIA and dust cloud distributions from CO maps, will allow creation of a unique tomographic map of the magnetic field structure towards the high Galactic latitude survey regions. The unprecedented combination of depth, precision and breadth will produce a legacy data set over four years of the survey.

      Qualification & Experience: The candidate should have experience working with a mixed environment employing optical design tools like Zemax integrated with Python for data generation, analysis and presentation. She/He should be able to augment the capabilities and overcome the limitations of standard optical design software packages through first principle ray tracing techniques which accounts for polarization effects at interfaces, materials, polarization elements etc. Prior experience in complex instrument modelling especially for polarimetry will be of advantage. Familiarity with instrument assembly, integration and testing will add strength to the application.

      Application Deadline: September 21, 2020.

    • Post-Doctoral Fellow (SUIT Payload)

      General Statement and Description: ISRO's Aditya-L1 mission will be a unique space-based Solar Observatory which will observe the Sun from the vantage location of the first Sun-Earth Lagrange point (L1), about 1.5 million kilometers away from Earth. The mission is scheduled to be launched in 2020 and is nominally planned for a five-year lifetime with the possibility of longer operations. The Solar Ultraviolet Imaging Telescope (SUIT) payload on board Aditya-L1 will provide full disk images of the Sun in 11 different passbands between 200-400 nm. It will also be capable of locating and tracking interesting areas of the Sun like active regions, flares, prominences etc. The two main science goals that SUIT will address are the magnetic coupling of the solar atmosphere and variation of spatially resolved solar spectral irradiance in near ultraviolet wavelength range, which is central to Sun-climate relations.

      Qualification & Experience: Candidates who have either submitted their PhD thesis or are already holding a PhD in Physics, Astronomy and Astrophysics, Astronomical Instrumentation or other related areas can apply. Some basic skills in programming with Matlab, Interactive Data Language (IDL) and/or Python will be useful. Familiarity in Solar Physics and Solar data analysis will be preferred. The candidate should be willing to learn the requisite abilities quickly.

      Fellowship: As per IUCAA norms which is Rs. 54,000/- per month at present.

      Application Deadline: Monday, October 28, 2019.
