The Open University is the UKs largest university, a world leader in flexible part-time education combining a mission to widen access to higher education with research excellence, transforming lives through education. Find out more about us and our mission by watching this___ (you will be taken to YouTube by clicking this link). Applications are invited for a three-year Research and Innovation Associate (RIA) position in the School of Physical Sciences at The Open University. This postdoctoral role forms a central part of an STFC-funded project that integrates advanced laboratory techniques with JWST observations to investigate the chemical and physical properties of interstellar ices. JWST has revealed unprecedented detail in midinfrared ice absorption features, but the major bands particularly the 3m OHstretch and 4.27m CO stretch remain challenging to interpret due to intertwined effects of ice composition, thermal evolution, and scattering from grain growth. This project aims to address these challenges by generating the systematic laboratory datasets and optical constants needed to disentangle these influences and support robust interpretation of JWST ice spectra. The postholder will lead a coordinated programme of experiments across three work packages. Using ultra-high vacuum ice film deposition techniques, they will systematically investigate how ice composition and thermal history shape mid-infrared band profiles, producing a comprehensive spectral library and deriving accurate optical constants.
