The Space Physics project will include use and development of advanced incoherent scatter radar data analysis tools for novel observations of the ionosphere with the EISCAT3D radar system. The radar observations will be combined with data from other ground-based and satellite instruments to study particle precipitation, energy transfer processes, and plasma flows in the auroral magnetosphere-ionosphere-thermosphere system.

Requirements:  MSc in Space Physics or a related field. Good programming skills are necessary. Experience in space physics datasets, inverse problems, and high-power computing are considered benefits, but are not required.
