Postdoctoral associate - galaxy formation and evolution
Job Summary
Ottawa ON
Canada
Job Description
This position is in the Physics Department at the University of Ottawa, where we are striving to put together a small group of highly motivated Ph.Ds to explore the evolution of the Universe using a new cosmological model. You should hold or expect to very soon hold a Ph.D. degree from a reputable academic institution with extensive experience in the field of galaxy formation and evolution modeling. You will be responsible for developing and modifying codes for the formation of early galaxies and their evolution using a new cosmology model derived from covarying coupling constants and tired light phenomenon as detailed in MNRAS 524, 3385 (2023) and arXiv:2401.09483. You must thoroughly understand the physics behind these codes and how the physics is coded to modify the code for the new model. An additional objective will be to test the model with BBN and LSS. The research done will be of a level acceptable for publication in top-tier journals. You are encouraged to read and thoroughly understand the new model (see also ApJ 964, 55 (2024); Universe 10, 266 (2024)) before applying for the position.
