The IAC (Tenerife) invites applications for TWO postdoctoral contracts to work on the project linked to the line of research “Solar and stellar magnetism”. The contract is funded by the project “Solar atmosphere dynamics: connectivity energy transfer, and diagnostics (SOLAR-CONNECTED)” (PID2024-156538NB-I00), led by Dr. Iñigo Arregui Uribe-Echevarria and Dr. Sergio Javier González Manrique.

Research topics at the IAC include most areas of astrophysics: Solar Physics (FS), Exoplanetary System and Solar System (SEYSS), Stellar and Interstellar Physics (FEEI), The Milky Way and The Local Group (MWLG), Formation and Evolution of Galaxies (FYEG), and Cosmology and Astroparticles (CYA-CTA). All of these are supported by an ambitious instrumentation programme. Further information about the IAC's research programme, its Observatories and the 10.4m GTC is available at the IAC's web page: https://www.iac.es/en

Tasks:The successful candidates will pursue research in the following fields:

• • Observational studies of the solar atmosphere using data from ground-based, space-borne, and balloon-borne solar telescopes.
• • Analysis of high-resolution imaging, spectroscopic, and spectropolarimetric observations to investigate plasma dynamics, wave phenomena, and magnetic field diagnostics.
• • Theoretical and numerical studies of oscillatory phenomena and wave modes in magnetized solar plasmas, including their propagation and energy transport.
• • Application of advanced data-analysis techniques, including statistical, Bayesian and machine-learning methods, for the interpretation of complex solar spectral profiles and coronal seismology.

Skills/Qualifications

Particular attention will be given to applicants with experience in the field of solar physics, especially in observational data analysis for one of the positions (Profile 1) and theory/diagnostics for the other position (Profile 2).

Specific Requirements

The candidates must have an excellent research record, commensurate with the duration of their research career. They must be in possession of a Ph.D. degree in Astrophysics or Physics by the application deadline.

Applications from candidates not in possession of a PhD will be rejected without further consideration.

Candidates who have obtained their doctorate at the IAC must provide accreditation of a period of complementary training at other research centres. The required period is a full continuous year or 18 accumulated months (including periods of training during the doctoral studies stage and after obtaining the Ph.D. degree, but not periods prior to the predoctoral contract at the IAC) by the application deadline. We encourage, in particular, applications by women and by members of minorities.
