Postdoc position in gravitational waves Theory at Friedrich-Schiller-Universität Jena
Applications are invited for a postdoctoral research position at the Friedrich-Schiller-Universitaet Jena. The appointment is associated with the research group of Prof. Sebastiano Bernuzzi at the Theoretical Physics Institute. The selected candidate is expected to work on the project “GROOVHY: Gravitational radiation from black holes’ hyperbolic mergers”, which is funded by the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG). The project’s workplan spans effective-one-body models for hyperbolic and generic-orbit binary black hole mergers, numerical-relativity and test-body perturbative simulations, and Bayesian data analysis of non-circularized black hole mergers. Applications should be received by August 1st, 2025, but will be considered until the position is filled.
