JOB OPENING: Multiple Job Openings at Southwest Research Institute
From: Mihir I Desai (mdesai at swri.edu)
The Department of Space Research of the Southwest Research Institute in San Antonio, Texas seeks candidates for positions at the postdoctoral researcher, research scientist and senior or principal research scientist levels in Heliospheric Physics. The selected candidate is expected to carry out original research addressing the origin and acceleration of energetic particles in the interplanetary medium. Research will focus on the analysis of suprathermal and energetic particle, as well as magnetic field and solar wind plasma data from the Wind, ACE, and STEREO, and Parker Solar Probe missions and will involve interactions with Institute Staff engaged in a broad range of observational, computational, and theoretical research in the physics of the solar wind and suprathermal and energetic particles. Propose and lead relevant scientific investigations in data analysis and modeling and publish results in peer-reviewed scientific journals, present results at scientific meetings, workshops, and conferences. Research will involve interactions with Institute Staff engaged in a broad range of observational, computational, and theoretical research in the physics of the solar wind and suprathermal and energetic particles.
