Are you our new colleague? Do you like to work on scientific software? Do you want to be part of the data analysis preparations for new space missions? Then you are the person we are looking for. You and SRON Netherlands Institute for Space Research With your work at SRON, you will prepare our data analysis software for Xray and infrared astronomy for the next generation of space observatories. The SPEX package is one of the worldleading spectral modelling codes for Xray astronomy. For the upcoming space missions XRISM and ATHENA, you will build a modular version of SPEX to enable it for use in future data analysis. For the RADEX package, which is widely used in the infraredsubmm astronomy community to model molecular spectra, the main goal is to expand the code to allow multimolecule and spectralspatial analysis. The code is currently used for ALMA and SOFIA, but an upgrade is also useful for upcoming observatories like JWST, METIS, GUSTO and OASIS. Your position and team You will be part of a team of 5 scientists and software engineers mf in the Astrophysics DataSoftware Group, which is part of the Astrophysics ASTRO program line at SRON. Our team supports data analysis and software projects within the ASTRO program with our expertise on calibration, advanced data analysis methods and software development. You will be based at our new location in Leiden. For the SPEX and RADEX projects, you will closely collaborate with the astronomers developing the code. You will therefore gain handson experience in developing scientific software that is specifically tailored to the needs of cuttingedge research. Your project During the first two years of the appointment, you will contribute to the SPEX software package by creating separate modules and documented interfaces APIs for the atomic data, spectral modelling and spectral fitting features of SPEX. In the final six months, you will add spectralspatial and multimolecule capability to the RADEX software package. Both packages are mainly written in the Fortran programming language. Position requirements We are looking for a person with a background in scientific computing or similar at an academic level. Clear assets will be strong programming skills in either Python, C andor Fortran, and handson experience with objectorientedmodular software design. Further Fortran training on the job is possible. Furthermore, you are expected to work accurately and in a structured way. Good English language skills speaking and writing and the ability to both work in a team and independently are a necessity for us. Providing a public Github profile or similar in your CV is highly appreciated.

Are you our new colleague? Are you an enthusiastic postdoctoral researcher who wants to study the role of mergers in galaxy evolution utilizing imaging data from large and deep galaxy surveys such as data from the KiloDegree Survey and the Euclid mission? Do you have a Ph.D. in astronomy or a related field and do you have experience with large galaxy surveys, machine learning andor simulations? We would like to encourage you to apply. You and SRON Netherlands Institute for Space Research You will work closely with experts in machine learning deep learning and simulations of galaxy formation and evolution within SRON and The University of Groningen. Your position and team The Astrophysics program at SRON is headed by dr. Frank Helmich. Deputy head is dr. JanWillem den Herder. The Astrophysics science group attached to this program consists currently of 52 persons, largely filled in by externally funded positions and guest scientists. You will join the research group led by dr. Lingyu Wang at SRON Netherlands Institute for Space Research and University of Groningen in the Netherlands. Your project Galaxy mergers result from cataclysmic collisions between galaxies, triggering intense bursts of star formation, rapidly feeding supermassive black holes in galactic centers, and eventually forming a new single entity under the influence of gravity. Mergers are among the most violent events in the Universe and therefore have a profound influence on the structure of the cosmos. The overarching goal of this project is to greatly advance our knowledge of galaxy evolution by quantifying, in detail, the role of galaxy mergers across cosmic time, using an integrated approach that combines three recent breakthroughs in highresolution galaxy surveys, computer vision using deep learning techniques, and stateoftheart cosmological simulations. Position requirements We are looking for a person with a Ph.D. in astronomy or a related field. We would like to see demonstrable experience of this through a portfolio of small or large projects, preferably with detailed photos and explanations. What we offer Employment of this fulltime position at SRONGroningen is by NWO The Netherlands Organization for Scientific Research and will initially be for a period of 2 years with extension up to 4 years based on satisfactory research performance.
