Three Postdoctoral Positions (Starting in 2025)
Two Positions for PhD or Integrated PhD (1 Domestic and 1 International Student, 2025 Spring)
Project: Dust Physics and 3D Magnetic Fields in the Star and Planet Formation Process
We seek highly motivated candidates for one PhD or Integrated PhD position in Theoretical Astrophysics at the Korea Astronomy and Space Science Institute, under the supervision of Professor Thiem Hoang. The successful candidate will join our research group to investigate dust physical processes and the critical role of magnetic fields in the star and planet formation process. The student will perform multiwavelength synthetic modeling of dust emission and polarization, and analyze observational data from JCMT/POL2, ALMA, and JWST to constrain dust physics and magnetic field properties in star-forming and planet-forming environments. Selected candidates will receive comprehensive training in analytical and theoretical methods, numerical modeling, and data analysis, equipping them for a successful career in astrophysics.
