POST-DOCTORAL ASSOCIATE

3 weeks ago


Berwyn Heights MD USA, United States University of Maryland Full time
The Planetary Surfaces and Spacecraft Lab at the University of Maryland, College Park is hiring multiple postdoctoral researchers. We are looking for experimentalists with experience working with vacuum systems, plasma physics, and/or granular materials and an interest in developing technology to remove lunar regolith from spacesuits and solar panels. The goal of this project is to demonstrate the functionality of a specialized lunar lint roller that uses synthetic gecko skin to remove dust, rather than a traditional adhesive. Additionally, we will be developing a cleaning appliance to make the gecko roller reusable. One investigator will build and operationalize a new UHV chamber system and test the gecko roller at lunar-relevant pressures. Other investigators will design, build and test the efficacy of the cleaning appliance. The postdoctoral investigators will work with Dr. Christine Hartzell and other team members (postdocs, grad students, and undergrad students) to mature this technology, and present research results (via conferences and journal publications) to the wider planetary science and exploration community.

The appointment will be in the Department of Aerospace Engineering, full-time, for at least one year, renewable for a second year upon satisfactory performance. Remuneration will be competitive and based on qualifications.

The expected start date is Nov 2023, but may be delayed until Jan 2024 for the right candidate.
