The South African Inter-University Institute for Data Intensive Astronomy (IDIA) and the US National Radio Astronomy Observatory (NRAO) are seeking applications for a joint IDIA-NRAO postdoctoral fellowship.
MeerKAT is a mid-frequency SKA precursor comprised 64 13.5-meter antennas located at the SKA central site in South Africa. It is undertaking several wide-field imaging large survey projects in advance of the SKA. The JVLA is carrying out a full polarization, broad-band large areas sky survey (VLASS).
The broad-band capabilities of MeerKAT and the JVLA, and of ALMA present challenges for high fidelity imaging. The IDIA-NRAO postdoctoral fellow will work on algorithmic R&D and on the necessary scientific software development as part of the NRAO’s Algorithms Research and Development Group (ARDG). Broadly, the work will be focused on developing and implementation algorithms to account for direction-, frequency-, and polarization-dependent effects common for broad band imaging with dish antenna arrays and incorporating them in pipeline processing software based on the casa package.
