Job Summary
The University of Texas at Dallas UTD is seeking to fill a Research Scientist position in the W. B. Hanson Center for Space Sciences. The Center has a vigorous research program associated with fundamental and applied studies of the Earths ionospherethermospheremagnetosphere ITM system using space and groundbased experimental resources as well as numerical modeling. We seek candidates capable of complementing the research capabilities of the Center in particular in the area of ionospherethermosphere coupling. The candidate will be especially involved in the development of analysis tools and research associated with the thermal plasma instruments that are a major part of the Centers historical and ongoing efforts. There are currently ten Earthorbiting platforms with CSS thermal plasma instruments on board. The Center has recently been selected to provide the Thermal Plasma Sensor TPS instruments for NASAs Geospace Dynamics Constellation GDC . GDC is a six satellite mission designed to investigate the coupling between the ionosphere and thermosphere and their response to external energy inputs. It will dramatically improve our understanding of the near Earth environment and how disturbances (space weather) there impact human technology and society. The candidate will be expected to be a major part of this exciting mission (launch currently scheduled for 2031.
