[Sweden] PhD position in Numerical Astrophysics at Chalmers University of Technology

PhD position in Numerical Astrophysics at Chalmers University of Technology

Overview

Onsala Space Observatory, the Swedish National Facility for Radio Astronomy, provides scientists with equipment to study the Earth and the rest of the Universe. We operate two radio telescopes in Onsala, 45 km south of Göteborg, and take part in several international projects. The observatory was founded in 1949 by professor Olof Rydbeck. It is hosted by Department of Earth and Space Sciences at Chalmers University of Technology, and is operated on behalf of the Swedish Research Council.

Job description
Planetary systems form in circumstellar discs of gas and dust. At any time, the dynamical state of these discs depends on the amount and type of matter present in them. The understanding of the evolution of discs requires the understanding of how matter and energy is transported through them. Ultimately, this energy is radiated away and it is the character of this radiation a distant observer needs to interpret properly.

PhD student position in Solid Mechanics with specialization in micromechanics at KTH Royal Institute of Technology

Overview
KTH is the largest technical university in Sweden. Education and research cover a broad spectrum within natural sciences and engineering, as well as architecture, industrial engineering and management, urban planning, work science and environmental engineering. KTH has 13344 full-time students, with 6955 at the Bachelor (first) level, 5545 at the Master (second) level, 1314 students at the doctoral studies (third) level, and 3900 employees.

The School of Engineering Sciences carries out a wide range of research at the international front line, from fundamental disciplines such as physics and mathematics, to engineering mechanics with applications such as aeronautics and vehicle engineering. We also offer University degree programs in Engineering Physics, Vehicle Engineering, `Engineering and Education`, and `Open Entrance`, as well as a number of International Masters Programs.

The understanding of the evolution of discs requires the understanding of how matter and energy is transported through them. Ultimately, this energy is radiated away and it is the character of this radiation a distant observer needs to interpret properly. This in turn requires the observer to have acquired adequate tools, both observational and theoretical.
