Open CNRS position in Dark-Energy Cosmology involving IJCLab/LSST.

CNRS permanent position – Chargé·e de Recherche (CRCN)
Research theme: Dark Energy studies with large cosmological surveys
Location: IJCLab (Orsay), IP2I (Lyon), or CPPM (Marseille)
Application deadline: CNRS calendar – section 19/03

A permanent CNRS Chargé·e de Recherche position is open in Section 19/03, on the theme “Dark Energy studies with large surveys”.

At IJCLab, the successful candidate will join a strong and dynamic cosmology group deeply involved in the Vera C. Rubin Observatory / LSST project. The research will focus on the exploitation of next-generation cosmological datasets to constrain the nature of dark energy, including (but not limited to):

  • Large-scale structure and galaxy clustering

  • Weak gravitational lensing

  • Supernova cosmology

  • Photometric redshifts and survey systematics

  • Statistical and computational methods for precision cosmology

  • The candidate is expected to play an active role in LSST science collaborations and to contribute to the scientific leadership of dark-energy analyses within IJCLab.

    This CNRS position is officially open at three possible host laboratories:

    • IJCLab (Orsay)

    • IP2I (Lyon)

    • CPPM (Marseille)

    Applicants interested in being hosted at IJCLab are strongly encouraged to contact us early to discuss scientific integration and support for the application.
