CSIRO Postdoctoral Fellowship in Stellar System Habitability
The Opportunity
CSIRO Early Research Career (CERC) Postdoctoral Fellowships provide opportunities to scientists and engineers who have completed their doctorate and have less than three years relevant postdoctoral work experience. These fellowships aim to develop the next generation of future leaders of the innovation system.
The focus of this CERC Postdoctoral Fellow will be to search survey data collected by the Australian Square Kilometre Array Pathfinder (ASKAP) for radio emission from nearby stellar systems. The Fellow will work closely with colleagues in the ASKAP VAST and POSSUM collaborations to efficiently find such systems using novel and innovative techniques, determine the nature of the detected radio emission, and assess the impact on planetary habitability from stellar activity such as giant flares. The Fellow will also be responsible for developing and enhancing processing pipelines optimised for the detection and study of polarized and transient radio sources.
Your duties will include:
