Postdoctoral Position in Observational High-Energy Astronomy

We are offering a 2-year postdoctoral position at the Observatory of the University of Hamburg to work on observational high-energy astronomy. The focus of this position lies on extragalactic research with LOFAR and other radio interferometers, as well as X-ray observatories such as Chandra. Multi-wavelength expertise and/or experience in theoretical research is also welcome. The Observatory offers a diverse and rich research environment with privileged access to our own LOFAR station and state-of-the-art computing facilities. We are also involved in eRosita and 4MOST. Funding for travel to attend and present at domestic and international meetings will be available. A PhD in astronomy and experience in reducing radio interferometry data is a requirement. Please send a motivation letter, CV and 3-page research statement via email to Prof. Bruggen by April 1st, 2017. The position is expected to begin no later than June 2017, however there is some flexibility. Also arrange for two letters of recommendation to be submitted via email.
