Ore Gottlieb’s group studies compact objects and high-energy transients through general-relativistic magnetohydrodynamic simulations, analytical models and multimessenger predictions. Topics include black holes, neutron stars, collapsars, stellar explosions, compact-object mergers, gamma-ray bursts, nucleosynthesis and gravitational waves. The researcher can develop independent projects and use leadership-class computing allocations. The benefits-eligible appointment is for two years with a possible third year, beginning flexibly in summer or autumn 2027. Salary is $73,308–$90,000. Application

The School of Physics and Astronomy at Monash University seeks a research fellow in transient astrophysics. The project investigates r-process element production in kilonovae from neutron-star mergers and in collapsars from rapidly rotating massive stars, connecting observations with nucleosynthesis and multi-messenger models. The fellow will collaborate with Monash’s observational transient group, the OzGrav transients working group and international researchers in supernova physics and stellar evolution. This Clayton-based, full-time Level A appointment lasts two years, with a possible one-y
