POSTDOCTORAL FELLOWSHIPS IN GRAVITATIONAL - WAVE - PHYSICS AND ASTRONOMY 
Two postdoctoral fellowships are beingoffered at the Astrophysical Relativity group of the International Centre for TheoreticalSciences (ICTS) in Bangalore, India. The fellowships are offered in the area ofgravitational-wave- physics and astronomy, including analytical- and numerical relativity.Candidates are expected to have a PhD in Physics or Astrophysics with an excellenttrack record. Although PhDs in gravitational-wave physics, relativistic astrophysics,general relativity etc. are preferred, candidates from other areas with strong analyticaland computational skills will also be considered. Two kinds of positions are offered:
  • Post Doctoral Fellow (3 years): Emoluments range from Rs 21,000-24,000 plus 30% housing allowance per month (before taxes), and a contingency grant of Rs 20,000 per annum.
  • Post Doctoral Visiting Scientist (2 years): Emoluments range from Rs 35,000-43,000 plus 30% housing allowance per month (before taxes). This position requires minimum 1 year of postdoctoral experience. Post doctoral fellows in scheme 1 can be considered for this position after a year.
The Astrophysical Relativity groupincludes P. Ajith (permanent faculty), Bala Iyer, Tarun Souradeep and Rana Adhikari(adjunct faculty). K. G. Arun, Sascha Husa and Mark Hannam are visiting associates.Adjunct faculty members and visiting associates are expected to spend from severalweeks to a few months every year at ICTS. Several undergraduate and graduate studentsare also expected to join the group in the next year. The group will have a stronginvolvement in the proposed LIGO-India project, the IndIGO consortium and the LIGOScientific Collaboration. In addition, the group expects to develop close collaborationswith the astrophysics and gravitational physics groups of the neighboring IndianInstitute of Science and Raman Research Institute, in addition to other researchgroups of ICTS. The group is organizing a one-month long ICTS program in numericalrelativity during June-July 2013. Such programs are expected to be organized regularly.In addition to a high-performance computer cluster that the Centre is in the processof purchasing, group members will have access to several large clusters in Indiaand abroad.Interested candidates are requestedsend their CV, list of publications and a research proposal of not more than twopages by e-mail to gravity.postdocs @ icts. res .in.Please also arrange at least three reference letters to be sent to the same e-mail.The nominal deadline is 1 December 2012; but applications will be considered untilpositions are filled. The nominal starting date of 1 September 2013 is negotiable.Informal queries may be addressed to ajith @ caltech .edu.
