Postdoctoral Researcher

2 months ago


Iowa City, United States Department of Physics & Astronomy, University of Iowa Full time

The Department of Physics and Astronomy at the University of Iowa seeks to appoint a Postdoctoral Research Scholar with an interest in experimental space physics and/or instrumentation to join a dynamic and expanding group of researchers. The department has a long history of building space-based instrumentation including 69 successful satellite and rocket missions. We are now leading the TRACERS (Tandem Reconnection and Cusp Electrodynamics Reconnaissance Satellites) Small Explorer mission currently scheduled to launch in 2025.


The researcher will join a diverse, early-career instrument team for MAGIC – a new fluxgate magnetometer Technology Demonstration (NPR7120.8A) payload that will fly on the TRACERS satellite mission. MAGIC is a next generation magnetic field instrument incorporating new low-noise cores manufactured from scratch. The researcher will support MAGIC through launch, commissioning, and operations and assist in the in-situ calibration of the instrument, the creation of magnetic field scientific data products, and the scientific interpretation of the magnetic field measurements of the Earth’s Northern magnetospheric Cusp. The researcher will be encouraged to spend a portion of their time developing a self-directed program of original research and preparing and submitting their own research funding proposals. A willingness to work collaboratively with faculty, technical and scientific staff, and to mentor students from a wide range of disciplines, cultures and academic backgrounds is essential.


The researcher will be expected to communicate their research through the publication of peer-reviewed journal articles and encouraged to undertake domestic and international travel in support of the research program. The project is highly collaborative, involving national and international topics experts, to further the scientific goals of the project and enable new scientific opportunities. The researcher may have the opportunity to help plan and develop new mission concepts and proposals.


The University of Iowa is a premier US public research university with 31,000 students from 114 countries and all 50 states. Founded in 1847, it is the state's oldest institution of higher education. The university is located along the picturesque Iowa River in Iowa City, a city of some 77,000 people (170,000+ in the metro area) with a cosmopolitan atmosphere, exceptional cultural resources, excellent public schools and libraries, and outstanding medical care. Iowa City is regularly ranked as one of the nation’s best places to live. Iowa City is less than four hours from Chicago and within five hours of Minneapolis, St. Louis, and Kansas City, readily accessible via interstate highways and a regional airport 30 minutes away. The Department of Physics and Astronomy is located in Van Allen Hall – named for our own Prof. James Van Allen whose many discoveries include the Earth’s radiation belts that now bear his name.


The position is available immediately with a negotiable start date. This initial term is two years with the potential of renewal. Salary will match or exceed the University of Iowa’s standard for post-doctoral scholars and scale with the applicant’s experience.
