POSTDOCTORAL FELLOWSHIPS in GALAXY FORMATION and COSMOLOGY
**************************************************************************************

We expect to offer postdoctoral fellowships to start in the fall of  
2014, potentially for
three years.  The cosmology group led by Prof. Avishai Dekel is  
looking especially
for researchers working on the theory of the formation, evolution and  
dynamics of
galaxies and large-scale structure, including hydro-gravitational  
simulations,
semi-analytic modeling and analytic work, in close contact with  
observations.

Our Center for Astrophysics and Planetary Science is part of the Racah  
Institute of
Physics at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem.   Astrophysics faculty  
include, among
others, Jacob Bekenstein, Yuval Birnboim, Avishai Dekel, Yehuda Hoffman,
Tsvi Piran, Re'em Sari, and Nir Shaviv.

Current postdocs working on galaxy formation are Colin Degraf, Shigeki  
Inoue,
and Adi Zolotov. Recent postdocs still associated with the group are
Daniel Ceverino and Dylan Tweed.

Overall we have 10 astrophysics postdocs this year, working mainly in  
cosmology
and galaxies,  high-energy astrophysics, planetary systems and  
gravity.  There
are currently 18 astrophysics graduate students at the Racah Institute.

We pursue extensive collaborations with other leading groups in Europe  
and in the
US, and can consider joint arrangements.

Interested candidates are invited to send their application material  
by email
to Mrs. Tali Mishali at astro.center at mail.huji.ac.il by December 31,  
2013.
The material should include a curriculum vita, a list of publications,  
a brief
summary of past, current and planned research, and three letters of
recommendation to be sent directly by the referees.

Applicants are also asked to make an e-mail contact with Prof. Avishai  
Dekel
at  avishai.dekel at mail.huji.ac.il
