We invite applications for a postdoctoral position at Strasbourg Astronomical Observatory (ObAS)<\/a> to participate in the EU-funded project H2020 SPACE XMM2ATHENA. The ObsAS harbours the Centre de Donnees astronomiques de Strasbourg (CDS) and is one of the member institutions of the XMM-Newton Survey Science Centre (SSC). The institute is also actively involved in future projects such as SVOM, IXPE, eXTP and Athena.<\/p>\n\n\n\n XMM2ATHENA is a collaboration of 9 European Institutes including members of the XMM-Newton SSC to develop innovative methods to maximize the return from the current X-ray observatory XMM-Newton and prepare for the forthcoming X-ray mission Athena.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The postdoc will lead efforts to expand the functionalities of the statistical multi-wavelength cross-matching software developed by the ARCHES FP-7 European project formerly led by Strasbourg. The improved identification and classification tool is key for the project. We also expect the successful applicant to actively take part in the scientific exploitation of this tool; Scientific interests close to those of the hosting team (X-ray binaries, ULXs, X-ray source populations in the Milky Way, the Magellanic Clouds and nearby galaxies) would be welcome.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The applicant is expected to have a PhD in Physics or Astronomy, experience in high energy astrophysics and programming skills. The salary is based on the French public service scale and the applicant\u2019s previous experience. Additional funding for conferences, collaboration, personal equipment and publication is available. The position includes full access to the French healthcare system (medical and dental, sick leave, maternity leave) and pension fund. The initial appointment is for one year, starting before April 2023, with the possibility of extension for a second year depending on availability of funds. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Candidates should send\u00a0a curriculum vitae, a list of publications, a summary of research interests (2-3 pages max) and contact details of two referees to Ada Nebot (ada.nebot@astro.unistra.fr<\/a>) before the 9th\u00a0of January 2023. Late applications will be cosidered. ObAS is an equal-opportunity employer. We encourage applications from women and minorities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Poste postdoctoral H2020 SPACE XMM2ATHENA<\/p>\n\n\n\n NOA\/IAASARS, ATH\u00c8NES, GR\u00c8CE<\/p>\n\n\n\n Les candidatures sont ouvertes pour un poste post-doctoral \u00e0 l’Institut d’astronomie, d’astrophysique, d’applications spatiales et de t\u00e9l\u00e9d\u00e9tection (IAASARS) de l’Observatoire national d’Ath\u00e8nes (NOA).
