Inquiries to Lars Bildsten (bildsten@kitp.ucsb.edu)
There will be a postdoctoral opening in the research group of Prof. Lars Bildsten starting September 1, 2013. The postdoctoral researcher would carry out their research in collaboration with Bildsten's research group. The scope of this work ranges from theoretical work on explosive events (such as supernovae), to developing and using the new computational tool, Modules for Experiments in Stellar Astrophysics (MESA). We also collaborate with observational efforts, such as the Las Cumbres Observatory Global Telescope (LCOGT) and the Palomar Transient Factory (PTF); thereby welcoming theoretically-minded observational astrophysicists to apply.
