Interviews are planned for April 2005. It is expected that the successful candidate will conduct research based on XMM-Newton data.

Applicants for this post should have a PhD in astrophysics or an equivalent qualification in a relevant discipline. Experience in medium to high resolution X-ray spectroscopy and/or the study of Active Galactic Nuclei is desirable.
