Email Submissions: gbtaylor@unm.edu
Attention: Dr. Greg Taylor, Re: Postdoctoral Fellowship
We invite applications for a postdoctoral fellow working on algorithm
development at the Array Operations Center in Socorro, New Mexico and
at the University of New Mexico in Albuquerque, to begin in September
of 2006. Our group has strong interests in developing new algorithms
for long-wave interferometry, addressing such challenges as wide-field
imaging, multi-frequency synthesis, field-dependent calibration,
etc. In addition to using nearby facilities such as the VLA and VLBA,
we are leading the effort to design and develop the Long Wavelength
Array (LWA), to be centered in New Mexico. The successful candidate
should have experience programming in C and/or C++, and is expected to
make significant progress in long-wavelength algorithm design. The
successful candidate could be involved in a modest amount of LWA
development according to his/her interests. Thorough practical
knowledge of radio interferometry techniques is highly desirable.
Candidates must have completed the Ph.D. at the time of hire.
Applications should be received by July 15, 2006 or until the
positions is filled, and should include a curriculum vitae, a
description of research interests and accomplishments, and a list of
publications. Candidates should also have at least three letters of
reference sent directly to Dr. Greg Taylor (gbtaylor@unm.edu),
Department of Physics and Astronomy, MSC 07 4220, 800 Yale Blvd NE, 1
University of New Mexico, Albuquerque, NM 87131-0001. The University
of New Mexico is an Equal Opportunity Employer.
