  • Assistant/Associate Professor in Astronomy & Astrophysics at University of Chicago

    22.10.2026 Assistant/Associate Professor in Astronomy & Astrophysics at University of Chicago The Department of Astronomy & Astrophysics at the University of Chicago invites applications for Assistant Professor and Associate Professor. We are interested in outstanding scientists who use theoretical, computational, and/or observational approaches to study any aspect of the “Extreme Universe”, including multi-messenger/time-domain Astronomy and high-energy/plasma Astrophysics. The ideal candidate would pursue an original research program in the Department, possibly complementing our existing strengths in cosmology, observational astronomy, galaxy formation, and exoplanets. Review of applications will begin on November 16, 2026 and will continue until the positions are filled. Read more

  • Postdoctoral position in deep-learning-based Newtonian-noise subtraction at University of Liège

    JOB DESCRIPTION The STAR Institute at the University of Liège, Belgium invites applications for a postdoctoral researcher position to work with the OGrav group, starting on November 1, 2026, or as soon as possible thereafter. The postdoctoral researcher will focus on deep-learning-based Newtonian Noise subtraction for the Einstein Telescope. The work will include the development, implementation, and in-situ tests of the method on the E-TEST prototype developed in Liège by Prof. Christophe Collette. The successful candidate will also collaborate with members of the Applied Geophysics (APGEO) group led by Prof. Frédéric Nguyen, and the Belgian gravitational-wave community (GraviBel/BelGrav). QUALIFICATIONS REQUIRED / PROFILE Applicants must not have spent more than 24…

  • The RING project in Germany: 1 Postdoc and 14 PhD positions in Physics, Geophysics, Geodesy

    we would like to draw your attention to the 4-year RING project recently funded by the German Research Foundation (extendable to 8 years). The project has strong overlap with gravitational wave detection research on instrumentation. The project aims at pushing the sensitivity and stability limits of rotational motion sensing with ring laser technology into new realms using approaches from quantum optics and metrology. The ultimate goal is to enable ring laser observations as a complement to classic space-geodetic methods towards more precise, high-rate estimation of Earth Orientation Parameters (EOP). Furthermore, we plan to develop (trans-) portable ring lasers fit for weak, broadband 6 degree-of-freedom ground motion observations towards better understanding…
