Missions
The successful candidate will join the ZTF-IN2P3 group at the CPPM to work on data from the Zwicky Transient Facility (ZTF) and develop cosmological analyses with the supernova probe.
Activités
The successful candidate will devote ~30% of their time to the ZTF group's general efforts to help construct SN light curves and extract distances. The remaining 70% will be available for cosmological analyses.
Compétences
A PhD in astrophysics, astroparticle physics, or high-energy physics is required. The candidate must be proficient in the basic methods of observational cosmology. Experience in observational data analysis and computer programming skills are essential.
This position is reserved for candidates with less than two years' experience.
Contexte de travail
Located in the heart of the Parc National des Calanques, on the Luminy campus, the CPPM is a joint research laboratory of the CNRS and Aix-Marseille University, with around 180 researchers, engineers and PhD students. The laboratory studies subjects ranging from particle physics to astroparticle physics and cosmology, with a strong technological focus on electronics, mechanics, instrumentation and computing, enabling the design and construction of cutting-edge detection systems, often called upon to operate under extreme conditions: in the depths of the sea, in space or underground. Most of our research is carried out as part of leading international scientific collaborations, and our contributions are recognized worldwide. CPPM is committed to ethical research and promotes diversity and inclusion in the workplace, and provides administrative and logistical support to newcomers, particularly PhD students. (more details here: https://www.cppm.in2p3.fr/web/fr/index.html)
The CPPM's observational cosmology group is currently affiliated with major photometric and spectroscopic survey projects (ZTF, Rubin/LSST, DESI, Euclid). The successful candidate will join the CPPM's ZTF group to develop supernova analysis and will also be able to participate and exchange with other projects, in particular Rubin/LSST.
