Postdoctoral Position on Extreme Mass Ratio Inspirals and QPEs in Leiden
Leiden Observatory invites applications for a postdoctoral position on theoretical and computational astrophysical studies of gravitational wave-related phenomena, with a strong preference for Extreme Mass Ratio Inspirals (EMRIs), and Quasi-Periodic Eruptions (QPEs). The postdoctoral position is within Prof. Elena M. Rossi’s group, which currently consists of five PhD students and one post-doc, who work on various galactic nuclei phenomena. It is funded by Rossi’s grant awarded within the National Roadmap for the Laser Interferometer Space Antenna (LISA). This consortium coordinates activities in the Netherlands in preparation for LISA data. Complete applications received by November 15, 2025, will receive full consideration.
