Applications are invited for one postdoctoral position at the Nicolaus Copernicus Astronomical Center (NCAC), in Warsaw, Poland, in the field of extragalactic distance scale. A successful applicant will work with Prof. Grzegorz Pietrzy\u0144ski on the project \u201cA sub-percent distance scale from binaries and Cepheids\u201d funded by the European Research Council. The work will include the analysis of  high-resolution spectra, optical and near infrared photometry with the aim to measure precise and accurate distances to Galactic and extragalactic objects. Since the team operate a dedicated observatory located at Cerro Murphy (just 1 km away from the Cerro Armazones, where ESO’s ELT is being built) an experience in instrumentation and dedication to observations will be an advantage.<\/p>\n<\/header>\n\n\n\n

\n

NCAC is the leading astrophysical institute in Poland, hosting about 50 staff researchers and 30 PhD students. NCAC scientists participate in many international projects, e.g., BRITE, Herschel, CTA, SALT, ATHENA.<\/p>\n

The position is available for two years with a possibility to extend. The position is available immediately.<\/p>\n

The candidate for postdoc positions is expected to have a valid PhD degree in astronomy at the starting date.<\/p>\n

Applications (in pdf format) should be sent to recruitment@camk.edu.pl<\/a> and must include a CV with list of publications, a copy of the PhD diploma, a short statement of research achievements and plans (maximum 2 pages), and two names of researchers willing to write a letter of recommendation and a scan of signed GDPD form – available from: https:\/\/www.camk.edu.pl\/en\/about\/ochrona-danych-osobowych\/#rodocent<\/a><\/p>\n

For full consideration, applications should be received by March 1st, 2019<\/strong>. The review of the applications will begin soon after this date and continue until the position is filled.<\/p>\n

Additional information can be obtained from Grzegorz Pietrzynski (pietrzyn@camk.edu.pl).<\/p>\n
