Dear colleagues,
The Department of Physics at Umeå University in Sweden is offering a
postdoctoral scholarship in modeling plasma interaction with planetary
bodies. The scholarship is full-time for two years and the start date will
be
15 February, 2023 or by agreement.
The aim of our project is to advance our current understanding on the
kinetic interaction between the solar wind and planetary bodies of
different sizes and characteristics with the main focus on atmospheric
evolution using a hybrid model of plasma.
Application deadline is 1 December 2022.
For more information, please see the job advertisement in the link below:

Please spread the word among your colleagues and potential postdoc
candidates!
For more information, please contact Dr. Shahab Fatemi
(shahab.fatemi(a)umu.se) or Dr. Maria Hamrin (hamrin(a)space.umu.se)

*PITHIA-NRF Trans-National Access (TNA) 3^rd Call*
PITHIA-NRF (Plasmasphere Ionosphere Thermosphere Integrated Research
Environment and Access services: a Network of Research Facilities)
invites applications for access to a variety of the *best
**European**research facilities* (nodes) for studies and modelling of
physical processes acting in the Earth’s upper atmosphere, with support
from experts within the field. There are twelve nodes within PITHIA-NRF
all dedicated to investigating the plasmasphere, ionosphere and/or
thermosphere.
The access can be *physical access* (one-week visit with travel and
accommodation included) or *remote access* (one-month remote access with
weekly support). The available services or resources are limited, and a
competitive process is required following a defined procedure and
criteria for the selection of users.
*Project opportunities:*
Information of project opportunities and description of the nodes are
available at https://pithia-nrf.eu/tna/tna-calls/second-tna-call. We
encourage any potential applicants to discuss with the relevant node
about the project before submitting their proposals. The TNA Support
Centre (tna(a)pithia-nrf.eu) at PITHIA-NRF can help establishing contact
points with the nodes.
*When?*
The call is open from *1 July 202**2* until the deadline *15
September**202**2*. The application can be submitted at any time between
these dates.
*Who?*
Access is provided for science projects to users from Academia, Small
and Medium Enterprises, Industry, and Public Organisations.
*How?*
The application should be filled in and submitted using the online form
(https://pithia-nrf.eu/forms/tna-application-form-
<https://pithia-nrf.eu/forms/tna-application-form-2>2
<https://pithia-nrf.eu/forms/tna-application-form-2>). After submission,
eligibility and feasibility checks will be performed followed by the
scientific evaluation. Follow the instructions at
https://pithia-nrf.eu/tna/tna-calls/second-tna-call.
