Descripción/Description: 

Dear Colleague CENTRA - CENTRA for astrophysics and Gravitation at Instituto Superior Técnico is opening one research position (postdoc) in the field of supernovae, their environments and their use as distance indicators. This position is supported by the project CRISP - Correcting Reddening Intelligently for cosmological Supernova Probes. CRISP-is a scientific project devoted to the study of reddening and extinction laws affecting supernova observations. The work aims to study supernovae and their environments and includes the development and implementation of modern astrostatistical techniques that take advantage of large statistical data samples. The team of the project includes researchers from CENTRA (Alberto Krone Martins, Ana Mourão and Santiago Gonzalez Gaitan) Starting date: March 1st 2019 Duration: 30 months PI: Ana Mourão Co-PI: Alberto Krone Martins Place of work: CENTRA - Center for Astrophysics and Gravitation, Instituto Superior Tecnico, Universidade de Lisboa, Lisboa, Portugal http://centra.tecnico.ulisboa.pt Interested candidates can request more information about the application procedure by sending an email to: jobs.crisp@centra.tecnico.ulisboa.pt -- Ana Maria Mourão Professora Associada CENTRA - Centro Multidisciplinar de Astrofísica Departamento de Física, Instituto Superior Técnico, 1049-001 Lisboa, Portugal Tlf/Phone: (+351) 218417728
