M2finders - Postdoctoral Positon (M/F/x) in Radio

vor 2 Monaten


Bonn, Deutschland Max-Planck-Institut für Radioastronomie Vollzeit

The Max Planck Institute for Radio Astronomy (MPIfR) is the leading radio astronomical institute in Germany. It operates the (as a single telescope and as an element of the European VLBI Network - and the Global Millimetre VLBI Array - ), the LOFAR DE1 station, which is part of the, the telescope in Chile (also an element of the Event Horizon Telescope - ), and a state-of-the-art VLBI (Very Long Baseline Interferometry) correlator. The department of Radio Astronomy/VLBI, led by Prof. Dr. J. A. Zensus, has a broad research portfolio, with a focus on compact extragalactic objects (AGN) and their broad-band emission, through very-high-resolution studies with mm
- and space-VLBI imaging and blazar monitoring.

M2FINDERS - postdoctoral positon (M/F/x) in radio astronomy

The MPIfR is recruiting postdoctoral researchers in Radio Astronomy to join the project M2FINDERS (Mapping Magnetic Fields with INterferometry Down to Event hoRizon Scales). is led by Prof. Zensus as the prime investigator, with funding by the European Research Council (grant agreement No 101018682). The project will measure and model the three-dimensional morphology of the magnetic field in the immediate vicinity of supermassive black holes. The primary goal is to use VLBI observations to measure the strength and distribution of the magnetic field within 10000 gravitational radii of the black hole and to use these measurements as a probe of physical conditions on the event horizon scale.

**The project has three main objectives**:
1. Observational studies of the magnetic fields in the vicinity of mupermassive black holes:
Performing multifrequency polarimetric VLBI observations of a sample of radio-loud AGN at 15/22/43/86 GHz with the Very Long Baseline Array (VLBA) and GMVA. Application of the derived linearly polarised emission: Faraday rotation measure, core shift, and turnover frequency/flux density distribution for mapping the structure of the magnetic field.

2. Development of advanced methods for interferometric imaging:
Development of algorithms for VLBI polarization calibration and imaging applied to GMVA observations at 86 GHz and EHT observations at 230 GHz. Implementation of frequency phase transfer (FPT) and source-frequency phase referencing (SFPR) techniques at the Effelsberg 100-m telescope for improving the dynamic range and astrometric accuracy of high-frequency VLBI observations.

3. Reconstruction of the 3D structure of the magnetic field near supermassive black holes

Development of methods for combining the polarisation and turnover frequency images for obtaining maps of the three-dimensional distributions of the magnetic field. Extension of the method for estimating the magnetic field strength from core shift to include the collimation and acceleration of the flow into the modelling framework.

**Your Profil**:
We are looking for researchers with scientific interests, qualification and skills matching one or more of these objectives. Experience in radio interferometry techniques and VLBI is desired.

The offers the opportunity for joint research with PhD students, their supervision, and teaching in the program within the M2FINDERS project.

**More Information**:
The initial appointments are for two years with the possibility of extension after review. The recruitment process will remain open until the positions are filled. Remuneration is within the framework of the German wage agreement for the public service (TVöD-Bund) in level 13.
