The Euclid-related LaScaLa project invites applications for two Postdoctoral Researcher positions in Systematics Analysis of NISP’ spectroscopic data of Euclid mission. These positions offer a unique opportunity to join a dynamic team of researchers at the forefront of cosmology and astrophysics. The successful candidates will play a pivotal role in the analysis of data from the Euclid mission, focusing on the identification, modeling, and mitigation of systematic uncertainties in observational data, for Dark Energy and Neutrino.
Successful candidates will be part of the “LaScaLa” project funded by the MUR of Italy. Targeted investigations focus on the systematics analysis of Euclid satellite data, in particular NISP spectroscopy.
Successful candidates will have a PhD in Physics or related discipline, strong programming skills, and previous experience in cosmology and/or astrophysics.
We strive to build a diverse and inclusive environment and welcome expressions of interest from traditionally underrepresented groups.
