Applications are invited for a postdoctoral researcher position in Prof. Benjamin Brown’s research group within the Laboratory for Atmospheric and Space Physics. Of particular interest are postdoctoral candidates who are interested in theoretical and computational studies of dynamics within solar and stellar interiors and photospheres. Research problems of particular interest include the driving of differential rotation and mean flows by convection, wave driving in stellar interiors, and global-scale magnetohydrodynamic dynamo processes. The successful candidate will have access to extensive computational resources and existing modern, highly parallel astrophysical fluid dynamics codes, and could be involved in the creation of next generation codes for studying solar and stellar fluid dynamics.
Applicants should submit a curriculum vitae, a list of publications, a description of research interests, and the names and contact information for three references. These materials should be submitted electronically to: https://www.jobsatcu.com, posting # RF01172.For more information please contact Professor Benjamin Brown (bpbrown@lcd.colorado.edu). Review of the applications will begin 1 April 2014 and continue until the position is filled.
