Expressions of interest are invited for postdoctoral positions in Particle Astrophysics to be held at the Niels Bohr International Academy and DARK. Highly motivated, outstanding candidates with expertise in numerical and analytical aspects of neutrino astrophysics, particle acceleration in astrophysical sources, multi-messenger astrophysics, and nuclear astro-physics are encouraged to apply. The successful applicant will join the AstroNu Group. The appointment is for two years with a starting date in the fall 2022 and it can be extended by one year subject to performance.

The Niels Bohr International Academy is a young initiative committed to fostering the traditions of internationalism, interdisciplinarity and excellence in physics, which characterize the Niels Bohr Institute. It functions as a primary center for fundamental research including theoretical and computational astrophysics, cosmology, high energy particle physics, particle astrophysics, condensed matter physics, quantum optics, and biophysics. Areas of research of the DARK Center at the Niels Bohr Institute include, but are not limited to: observations, theory of astrophysical transients and cosmic explosions, particle astrophysics, high-redshift galaxies, dark matter and dark energy, black holes, and cosmic dust.

Postdoctoral Fellows receive a competitive salary (including pension) and funds for travel and computing. Generous parental leave, state-subsidised childcare, vacation, and full medical care are provided to employees in Denmark. A favorable tax scheme is generally granted to international researchers.

The University of Copenhagen wishes to reflect the diversity of society and welcomes applications from all qualified candidates regardless of personal background. The primary criterion for the evaluation of candidates is the excellence of their research.
