Fellowship Program from ESA Education: You should have recently completed and obtained your PhD before starting the Research Fellowship. Applications submitted by candidates within five years of receiving their PhD are preferred. Additional requirements: The working languages of the Agency are English and French. A good knowledge of one of these is required. Knowledge of another Member State language would be an asset. The Agency may require applicants to undergo selection tests. With the application, 4 separate documents must be provided in the "additional documents" field of the "application information" section: 1. CV 2. Motivation letter 3. List of publications separate from the CV, concisely indicating your individual contribution to each paper. 4. A research proposal of no more than 4 pages outlining your proposed research. #esa #esafellowship #fellowship #researchfellowship #phdfellowship #startup #students

🚀 Researchers from University of Zurich are contributing to the #Euclid space mission led by the European Space Agency - ESA The space telescope is set to launch on July 1st from Cape Canaveral in the USA, with the goal of uncovering clues about the formation of the universe and dark matter. 🌌 The mission aims to record the large-scale arrangement of galaxies up to 10 billion light years away from Earth in a 3D map. With this unique mapping of the cosmos, researchers hope to discover more about the nature of dark matter and dark energy, as well as the laws of gravity. “Dark matter is matter that does not emit, absorb or reflect light,” explains Francesca Lepori, cosmologist at the Center for Theoretical Astrophysics and Cosmology at UZH. This invisible mass is difficult for researchers to study, but it is clear that there must be something else there. 🔭 In addition to Lepori, nine other UZH researchers are involved in the scientific evaluation of the space mission.

Follow👉 Techup Pakistan The construction of the Tropical Deep-sea Neutrino Telescope (Trident) in the South China Sea is a remarkable scientific endeavor with far-reaching implications. Situated 2.2 miles beneath the Western Pacific Ocean’s surface, Trident is poised to become the world’s largest and most advanced neutrino telescope. Trident’s primary mission is to detect and study cosmic neutrinos, elusive subatomic particles that can traverse vast cosmic distances and interact with water molecules, emitting bursts of light. By studying these neutrinos, scientists hope to unravel the mysteries surrounding the origin of cosmic rays. Cosmic rays are high-energy particles from outer space, and understanding their source is a longstanding question in astrophysics. Additionally, Trident’s capabilities extend beyond cosmic ray research. It will be instrumental in conducting experiments related to space-time symmetries, a fundamental aspect of the universe’s structure. Delving into the intricacies of quantum gravity, another mysterious realm in physics, is also part of Trident’s scientific agenda. Furthermore, the telescope indirectly contributes to the ongoing quest to explore the existence of dark matter, an invisible substance that makes up a significant portion of the universe’s mass.

📃Scientific paper: Multi-messenger astrophysics in the gravitational-wave era Abstract: The observation of GW170817, the first binary neutron star merger observed in both gravitational waves (GW) and electromagnetic (EM) waves, kickstarted the age of multi-messenger GW astronomy. This new technique presents an observationally rich way to probe extreme astrophysical processes. With the onset of the LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA Collaboration's O4 observing run and wide-field EM instruments well-suited for transient searches, multi-messenger astrophysics has never been so promising. We review recent searches and results for multi-messenger counterparts to GW events, and describe existing and upcoming EM follow-up facilities, with a particular focus on WINTER, a new near-infrared survey telescope, and TESS, an exoplanet survey space telescope. ;Comment: 5 pages, 1 figure, proceedings from TAUP 2023 Continued on ES/IODE ➡️ https://etcse.fr/SpcJ ------- If you find this interesting, feel free to follow, comment and share.

A five-star review for our free teaching resource on #astronomy! As astronomers look deeper into space, they require better instruments to do so. A joint team of scientists and engineers at Cardiff University / Prifysgol Caerdydd, UK, and the National Institute of Astrophysics, Optics and Electronics, Mexico, have risen to this challenge. With the new technology in their ground-breaking #camera, we could soon be learning more about the formation of the Universe’s biggest stars and oldest galaxies. https://lnkd.in/e-a_wamZ Marcial Becerril Tapia Sam Rowe INAOE
