About
A four-year postdoctoral appointment within NewPhysCMB studies cosmological parity violation using polarized microwave data. The researcher will analyse FYST/Prime-Cam measurements, TB and EB correlations, Galactic dust foregrounds and polarization-angle signals with Eiichiro Komatsu and the CCAT collaboration. The nominal start is 1 September 2027; an earlier start may be possible.
Requirements
PhD completed within the last six years; strong background in CMB or submillimeter polarization analysis, statistical inference or Galactic foreground modelling. Submit a CV with three referee contacts, publication list and research statement.
