Job Advertisement: Closing Date 28th February 2019

Swedish Institute of Space Physics are looking for: Postdoctoral Positions in Space Physics*

The positions are related to studies of space plasmas.

The scientific topics of the respective postdoc positions are the following:

1. Direct observation of anomalous resistivity in collisionless plasmas, and its importance for magnetic reconnection, based on measurements of electric and magnetic fields and charged particles by the four NASA MMS satellites.

2. Energy budget of the topside ionosphere and upper thermosphere, based on observations by the three ESA Swarm satellites.

3. Investigation of the dynamics of the terrestrial magnetosheath during disturbed solar wind conditions based on multi-spacecraft observations (solar wind monitors, MMS, Themis, Cluster, Geotail), and the resulting geomagnetic responses measured by ground magnetometers (IMAGE, MIRACLE) at high latitudes.

Last Application Date: 2019-02-28
