Job Title: Postdoctoral Fellow Position at IUCAA, Pune
Job Category(s) : Post-doctoral fellow
Job Description : Candidates are invited to apply for postdoctoral positions under project "Forming galaxies in the first few hundred million year (NINJA simulations)" at IUCAA. In the standard Lamda CDM model galaxies are formed in collapsed dark matter halos. These dark matter halos are produced from the initial density and velocity perturbations that evolve through gravitational attraction. New JWST observations put stringent constraints on number of galaxies per unit volume, mass of stars in galaxies and number density of super-massive blackholes etc. We are addressing these issues using large-scale hydrodynamical-structure-formation simulations (Named NINJA) at IUCAA. The selected PDF is expected to work with these simulations to address issues related to galaxy formation and/or the IGM/CGM physics at vary early universe.
