Attention: Prof. P.T. de Zeeuw
Leiden Observatory invites applications for a faculty position in the
Raymond & Beverly Sackler Laboratory for Astrophysics. The successful
applicant is expected to lead the use and development of innovative
new laboratory experiments aimed at addressing scientific problems of
astrophysical and astrochemical interest. Existing instrumentation
includes high-vacuum and ultra-high vacuum set-ups to simulate the
formation and evolution of interstellar ices, including thermal and
ultraviolet processing. Close interaction with the molecular
astrophysics group at Leiden Observatory, and with astronomical
observations in general, is expected. The position is part of the
Netherlands (top-)Research School for Astronomy (NOVA), a national
association of university astronomy departments.
The position is open to scientists of all nationalities. Both junior
and more senior applicants will be considered. Candidates with
postdoctoral experience in the general area of laboratory astrophysics
or experimental chemical physics (in particular in surface chemistry,
ultra-high vacuum techniques and/or mid-infrared spectroscopy) and
with experience in interstellar applications, are encouraged to apply.
Applicants should send a curriculum vitae, publication list, and a
statement of past and future research interests, and arrange for three
letters of recommendation to be sent to Professor P.T. de Zeeuw at the
above address. Review of applications will start December 10, 2004.
