The Associate Research Scientist will lead a comprehensive science and engineering program to search for, and characterize, high-z transients in space-based imaging data for the Transient Science at Space Telescope (TSST) team. This includes leading a team of 3+ post-doctoral and

 STScI staff members in the development, testing, documentation, and deployment of a JWST difference imaging pipeline. The Associate Research Scientist will plan enhancements to support cross-telescope difference imaging (e.g., Euclid – JWST, Roman – JWST),

 including solving issues related to space-based, non-Gaussian PSF matching, field rotations, and precision alignment. They will use this pipeline to discover SNe Ia candidates in public JWST imaging, classify them with a variety of tools in real-time, lead

 weekly Zoom meetings to keep the collaboration apprised of the most recent set of candidates, coordinate ground-based follow-up, and ultimately be responsible for triggering our JWST target-of-opportunity follow-up program.

The William H. Miller III Department of Physics and Astronomy at Johns Hopkins University invites applications for two postdoctoral positions scientist positions to pursue research in cosmology:

(1) One position is predominantly dedicated to the analysis of data from the Cosmology Large Angular Scale Surveyor (CLASS), a CMB polarization experiment. The applicant is expected to work primarily with Prof. Tobias Marriage.

(2) Another position is predominantly dedicated to analysis of data at the interface between cosmological theories and observations, especially CMB data but including other types of measurement as well. The applicant is expected to work primarily with Prof. Charles Bennett.

In both cases candidates are expected to have familiarity with cosmology, Bayesian statistical analysis, and strong software skills. CMB data analysis experience is preferred.

The Johns Hopkins cosmology group offers a rich environment that includes faculty and staff with substantial expertise including experimental, analytical to theoretical. Extensive computational resources are available.

It is anticipated that both postdoc positions will be filled at the rank of Johns Hopkins assistant research scientist, with competitive salaries and generous benefits. We anticipate that the positions will be renewed annually based on satisfactory performance, for an expected total of three years.

Applications will be reviewed as received, starting November 1, 2024, and will remain open until the positions are filled. Applications consist of a curriculum vitae, publication list and a description of past research and future interests. Applicants should also arrange to have two or three letters of reference submitted. The start date is subject to negotiation.
