Description

About the NASA Postdoctoral Program

The NASA Postdoctoral Program (NPP) offers unique research opportunities to highly-talented U.S. and non-U.S. scientists to engage in ongoing NASA research projects at a NASA Center, NASA Headquarters, or at a NASA-affiliated research institute. These one- to three-year fellowships are competitive and are designed to advance NASA’s missions in space science, Earth science, aeronautics, space operations, exploration systems, and astrobiology.

Description:

Magnetic fields inform us about many aspects of planets and plasmas. Using observations from magnetometers on spacecraft we can learn about an object‘s core, whether it has oceans or aquifers, and how its atmosphere interacts with the solar wind. For example we can use MAVEN data to examine how the solar wind might have eroded away the martian atmosphere over billions of years, Juno data to probe the origin of Jupiter‘s internal magnetic field and powerful magnetosphere, or Parker Solar Probe data to understand the origins of the solar wind. The candidate would have the opportunity to work with existing spacecraft data to conduct data analysis of these topics and to use science to better understand how planets and plasmas work.
