COS team at LUTH (located at the Meudon site
of Paris Observatory, near Paris) is
inviting applications for a 2-year
postdoctoral position in numerical
cosmology. The starting date is expected
any time between February 1<sup>st</sup> 2024
and October 1<sup>st</sup> 2024. The
selected candidate will play a pivotal role
in implementing a (flexible) modified
gravity model within the RAMSES cosmological
N-body (and hydrodynamical) code. They will
conduct a suite of large N-body simulations
(on French and European supercomputers),
exploring the parameter space and
investigating the influence of modified
gravity on large-scale structures.
Additionally, the candidate will make use of
the Magrathea library for relativistic ray
tracing (i.e., for the study of weak-lensing
and redshift space distortions). Such work
is key for the interpretation of ongoing and
future surveys such as <i>Euclid</i>, DESI
and LSST. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
