The Gravity Exploration Institute at Cardiff University is seeking a postdoc (called 'research associate' in the UK) in gravitational-wave experimentation and instrument simulation. Closing date for the application is 13 the November 2026.
The post will be focused on a new optical calibration scheme for gravitational-wave detectors and on modeling thermal behavior of optics and sensing in gravitational-wave detectors.
Part of the work will be developed on our world-leading table-top experiment, and the candidate is also foreseen to spend some time at the LIGO sites.
Please talk to Prof. Hartmut Grote, or Prof. Katherine Dooley, or Dr. Keiko Kokeyama for any question.
