Subject: Post-Doc(s) SIRTF GTO a l'University of Arizona
Date: Mon, 13 Jan 2003 11:03:30 -0700
From: Herve Dole <hdole@as.arizona.edu>

Bonjour,

Au moins une position de post-doc est ouverte a l'Universite d'Arizona
pour participer au programme scientifique du temps garanti de MIPS sur
SIRTF (lancement le 15 avril 2003).
Attention a la date limite pour postuler: 31 January 2003.
Tout savoir sur SIRTF: http://sirtf.caltech.edu/

Note personnelle: pour avoir vecu 2 ans a Tucson, je ne peux que
conseiller cet endroit, tant sur le plan professionnel que pour la
qualite de vie. Je peux par ailleurs donner individuellement d'autres
renseignements sur ces postes le cas echeant.


We invite applications for one or more positions to work on a guaranteed
time program with the Multiband Imaging Photometer for SIRTF (MIPS).
MIPS images in spectral bands at 24, 70, and 160 microns, using high
performance infrared arrays. It will take full advantage of the
ultra-low backgrounds in space to achieve unprecedented sensitivity and
aerial coverage. To learn more about this instrument, look at
http://mips.as.arizona.edu/. SIRTF is due to be launched in January,
2003, and will start science observations three months later.

Responsibilities will include planning of the MIPS observations,
analysis of the data obtained by the instrument, acquiring supporting
ground based data, and developing analysis and modeling tools. Prior
far-infrared experience is not required for a candidate with strong
qualifications in other aspects of these tasks. Although
responsibilities for the SIRTF program must have priority, the positions
include full access to other research capabilities at Steward
Observatory, such as the 6.5-m MMT optical/infrared and the 10-m submm
telescopes.

The positions can be at the postdoctoral level (Research Associate) or
in the research ranks (Assistant Astronomer) of Steward Observatory, at
salaries from $40,000 to $50,000, depending on qualifications and
experience. A PhD in Astronomy, Physics or a related field by the time
of hire is required, as is a background in a sub-field of astronomy. A
position may be available as early as July 2003, and the positions would
potentially continue to the end of the SIRTF mission, projected to be
approximately five years after launch. Application materials must be
received by 31 January 2003: please send a curriculum vitae, a statement
of experience and research interests, and the names of three references
to Ms. Debra Wilson at the above address, or apply by email to
dwilson@as.arizona.edu

The University of Arizona is an EEO/AA Employer-M/W/D/V.
