2016-10-18 15:04:35| Space-careers.com Jobs RSS
Space Environ and Effect Analysis Engineer MF SEEAESERV201610ESTEC001 The work will be performed at the European Space Research and Technology Centre ESTEC in Noordwijk, The Netherlands. The successful candidate will join the Space Environment and Effects Sections that supports ESA and European space mission development with investigations of space environments and their effects on space systems. Tasks and Responsibilities Main activities of the section are Application of many different models and software packages to analyse the effects that space environments e.g. chargedparticle radiation, plasmas, micrometeoroids space debris, atomic oxygen, geomagnetism may have on ESA missions. Development, adaptation, use and interpretation of the various models and tools and software development of associated graphical and other utilities, including WWW applications. Inorbit measurements of environmental parameters energetic particles, microparticles, plasmas are used to investigate local spacecraft conditions and to develop models of these environments for use in future mission planning. Tasks will contribute to the analysis of some of these data, derive relevant parameters to compare with existing models for validation, and ultimately lead to improvement of the models. Tasks will also involve contributions to the design, development, testing and calibration of the equipment for inorbit measurements. Natural energetic particles in space interact with components, detectors, astronauts, etc. causing a variety of problems. The GEANT4 radiation transport toolkit is used for specific space problems, including dose, SEE, and interactions of solar and galactic particles with detectors, etc. Microparticle environments are analysed with ESABASE2Debris. Spacecraft plasma interactions are analysed with SPIS, as well as heritage tools. Atmospheric environments are studied with the Mars climate databases and circulation models GCM, including the European Martian Climate Database and GCM. Spenvis is used as a generalpurpose resource for space environments and effects analyses. Contribute to development of space weather systems, including system definition and reviews, model development, testing of developed methods and establishment services. Contributions are also expected to the definition of required space weather hardware e.g. instrumentation and software developments, and subsequently assisting in the monitoring of industrial contracts. Contributions to the preparation of ECSS engineering standards shall be made ECSSE1004, ECSSE1012, ECSSE20, etc.. The tasks will include Support the section with maintenance of computational infrastructure for providing space environments and effects analysis support including web site upgrade and updating, software testing, software implementation and maintenance. Reviews of documents in this domain and in areas where environmental effects may have an impact shall be undertaken. Support the activities of technology research and development contracts regarding the above areas, including direct interfaces with the contractors, participate in progress meetings and reviews, as requested, and provide appropriate feedback on the progress and discussions. Support the projects interfacing may include communication with the project contractor companies or partner organizations, participation in progress meetings and reviews, as requested by project work, and provision of appropriate feedback on the achieved progress and discussions. Reports on analyses. Presentations to project staff Documentation of Development work. Qualification and Experience The applicants should have A Master Degree or equivalent qualification in Physics or a related discipline with good computing ability, or equivalent experience. Specific knowledge of the interactions of the plasma environment in space with spacecraft, along with the computational methods used to evaluate the interactions. Experience with programming in Java and C under Unix is required. Familiarity with the SPIS spacecraft plasma interaction system would be an advantage. Very good verbal and written communication skills are required. In addition to the competence the following attributes would be highly desirable Experience with analyses of other aspects of the space environment and interactions with spacecraft that fall under the section area of operation plasmas, surface and internal electrostatic charging planetary atmospheres, charged dust and contamination Physics simulation techniques such as particleincell plasma simulation Design, development and operation of instrumentation for measuring the space environment, e.g. plasma monitors, magnetometers, and the associated data exploitation Experience with modern programming languages and IT environments. What Do We Offer? A chance to actively participate in the space adventure. To work in a growing company, with a nice atmosphere and where autonomy and initiatives are encouraged. An interesting remuneration package will be offered with relocation assistance, if applicable. Preference will be given to candidates eligible to work in the European Union. We are looking for someone to start as of January, 2017. How to Apply? Please apply by filling in the online application form and uploading your CV and Motivation Letter both in English on the Careers section of our website httpcareers.spaceapplications.com via the Apply button.

The Madhouse Effect of climate denial
2016-09-26 12:00:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Guardian: A new book by Michael Mann and Tom Toles takes a fresh look on the effects humans are having on our climate and the additional impacts on our politics. While there have been countless books about climate change over the past two decades, this one entitled The Madhouse Effect - distinguishes itself by its clear and straightforward science mixed with clever and sometimes comedic presentation. In approximately 150 pages, this books deals with the basic science and the denial industry, which has...
