Title:
Cymdeithion Ymchwil – Cosmoleg
Mae'r grŵp cosmoleg dan arweiniad yr Athro Erminia Calabrese a Dr Ian Harrison yn chwilio am Gymdeithion Ymchwil – Cosmoleg ar gyfer prosiect ym Mhrifysgol Caerdydd.
Bydd y cymdeithion ymchwil yn gweithio ar nodweddu a dehongli data Cefndir Microdonnau Cosmig (CMB) o'r radd flaenaf o Arsyllfa Simons a ar gynlluniotaith LiteBIRD. Rydym yn chwilio am ymchwilwyr sydd â hanes diamheuol onodweddu data ar y CMB a’i ddefnyddio'n gosmolegol neu efelychiadau awyrmicrodon, a'n modelu ystadegol sy'n ofynnol ar lefel tebygolrwydd.
Bydd y cymdeithion ymchwilyn gweithio ar draws grwpiau Seryddiaeth Caerdydd a Offeryniaeth Seryddiaeth.
Mae'r swydd dydy'r gymdeithion ymchwil yn dduddio o fis Tachwedd 2026 am ddwy flynedd, neu nes bod cyllid ar gael.
Mae angen i chi fod â PhD neu fod yn agosáu at orffen eich rhaglen ymmaes Ffiseg, Cosmoleg, Astroffiseg, Seryddiaeth neu faes cysylltiedig agos.
