Postdoctoral Research Associate In Galaxy Formation, Cosmology, And Machine Learning

University Of Connecticut

Description

Applications are invited for a Postdoctoral Research Associate position to join Prof. Daniel Anglés-Alcázar's research group in Computational Galaxy Formation at the University of Connecticut. The successful candidate will work closely with the group on research topics ranging from supermassive black hole growth and feedback to the impact of baryonic physics in cosmology. The growing UConn astrophysics group, in beautiful Storrs CT, has a vibrant and collegial atmosphere and also includes research groups on star formation, the interstellar medium, galaxy evolution, active galactic nuclei, and gravitational-wave astrophysics.

DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES

Candidates with research expertise and interests at the intersection of galaxy formation, cosmology, and machine learning are particularly encouraged to apply, with the expectation to become part of the Cosmology and Astrophysics with MachinE Learning Simulations (CAMELS) project and collaborate closely with external groups at the Flatiron Institute, Columbia, and Princeton, including two other concurrent postdoctoral hires at Princeton and Columbia. Other areas of particular focus include research on black hole-galaxy co- evolution as part of the Feedback In Realistic Environments (FIRE) project, and the new Interscale Galactic NucleI Simulations (IGNIS) resolving AGN accretion disk scales in a full cosmological context. The successful candidate will have the possibility to be a guest researcher at the Center for Computational Astrophysics of the Flatiron Institute for extended research collaborations.
