Offer Description
Applications are invited for a 3-year postdoctoral position within the Applied Mathematics research group, to begin in April 2024. The position is funded by a Leverhulme project grant to investigate the fine-scale structure in solar flare ribbons and how it relates to turbulence in the solar atmosphere. Candidates with a strong track record in fluid dynamics and/or Magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) are particularly encouraged to apply. The position will be under the direction of Dr Peter Wyper and will primarily involve analysing MHD simulation data to understand the connection between flare ribbons and turbulent magnetic reconnection. It is envisaged that automatic analysis software will be developed to characterise the simulated ribbons, likely involving machine learning techniques, which will then later be applied to satellite observations. The successful applicant will also be encouraged to interact with other members of the research group and to begin developing independent research ideas.
The position is fixed-term and it is expected that the candidate will spend the majority of the their time in Durham, but arrangements for partial remote working can be discussed.
