Dear Colleagues,

The Department of Physics and Astronomy at the University of Iowa invites applications for a Postdoctoral Research Position in the field of Space Physics. The position involves analyzing spacecraft observations from current spacecraft missions (Parker Solar Probe, MMS, ARTEMIS, MAVEN, Wind) using new techniques based on kinetic plasma theory to understand plasma heating and particle acceleration by turbulence in heliospheric plasmas.  The successful candidate will have a Ph.D. in physics, or a closely related field, with experience in space physics or plasma physics research. Preference will be given to those with experience in the observational analysis of spacecraft measurements. The position is for two years, with potential renewal for a third year.

Applicants should send (in PDF format, please) a cover letter, CV, and statement of research interests and arrange for at least two letters of recommendation to be sent via e-mail to Professor Howes at gregory-howes at uiowa.edu<mailto:gregory-howes at uiowa.edu><mailto:gregory-howes at uiowa.edu>; inquiries may be sent to the same address.
